SoC 101 - Lecture 2e: Measuring Performance

System-on-Chip 101 or "Everything you wanted to know about a computer but were afraid to ask" This is Lecture 2 of my "SoC 101" course at Bar-Ilan University. In this course, I provide an overview of computer hardware engineering and SoC design, covering the full stack from the basic terminology, through computer architecture, and up to low-level software and design methodologies. The purpose of this course is to methodologically tell you about all those things that you may not have heard during your engineering studies and "fill the gaps" between the parts that you learned in-depth. It is in no way intended to provide a full, detailed description of every concept introduced, but following the course will give you a good idea about how a computer or any embedded system actually works. Lecture 2 focuses on the Microprocessor. The CPU is the heart of any computing system, from high-end server to embedded system-on-chip. The lecture starts with a brief history of the CPU and then covers the basics of instruction set architectures (ISAs), how procedures are called, the compiling, assembling, linking and loading (CALL) process, and finishing with a bit about measuring processor performance.
