CY-504 (A) Cyber Law & Intellectual Property Rights - Dec 2024 Question Paper

  1. 7 Marks
    aDescribe the general register organization in CPU architecture. Explain the role of registers like Memory Register, Instruction Register, and Program Counter.
  2. 7 Marks
    bHow does the CPU handle stack operations? Explain with an example.
  3. 7 Marks
    aDiscuss the concept of floating-point and decimal arithmetic, and how these are handled by the arithmetic unit.
  4. 7 Marks
    bWhat is Instruction Set Architecture (ISA)? Explain the various types of addressing modes with examples.
  5. 7 Marks
    aDefine Interrupts and explain their types. How are interrupts handled in a microprocessor, specifically in the case of the 8086 microprocessor?
  6. 7 Marks
    bDifferentiate between a hardwired control unit and a micro-programmed control unit with suitable diagrams.
  7. 7 Marks
    aExplain the concept of Memory Hierarchy in computer architecture. Why is cache memory considered crucial in improving system performance?
  8. 7 Marks
    bWhat is associative memory? How is it different from cache memory?
  9. 7 Marks
    aDiscuss the working of Direct Memory Access (DMA). How does it differ from programmed I/O and interrupt-driven I/O?
  10. 7 Marks
    bDiscuss the differences between serial and parallel data transfer. Why is serial transfer used in some cases despite being slower than parallel transfer?
  11. 7 Marks
    aExplain the difference between RISC and CISC architectures. Why are RISC processors generally preferred in modern computing?
  12. 7 Marks
    bExplain the concept of Instruction-Level Parallelism (ILP) and how it differs from Thread-Level Parallelism (TLP). Provide examples to illustrate the difference.
  13. 7 Marks
    aCalculate the effective access time of a memory system with a cache if the hit ratio is 95%, the access time of cache memory is 10 ns, and the access time of main memory is 100 ns.
  14. 7 Marks
    bWith the help of a diagram, explain the basic structure of a computer system, highlighting the components of the CPU, memory and I/O subsystem.
  15. 14 Marks
    Write a short notes on (any four) : a) Architecture of a multicore processor b) I/O Channels c) Micro program sequencer d) Instruction Formats e) Pipelining
