A bus is a shared communication link, which uses one , set of wires to connect multiple subsystems. The two major advantages of the bus organization are versatility and low cost.

Accessing I/O Devices
• Most modern computers use single bus arrangement for connecting I/O devices to CPU & Memory • The bus enables all the devices connected to it to exchange information • Bus consists of 3 set of lines : Address, Data, Control • Processor places a particular address (unique for an I/O Dev.) on address lines • Device which recognizes this address responds to the commands issued on the Control lines • Processor requests for either Read / Write • The data will be placed on Data lines

Hardware to connect I/O devices to b t bus
• Interface Circuit – Address Decoder – Control Circuits – Data registers – Status registers

• The Registers in I/O Interface – buffer and control • Flags in Status Registers like SIN, SOUT Registers, SIN • Data Registers, like Data-IN, Data-OUT

A bus generally contains a set of control lines and a set of data lines. The control lines are used to signal requests and acknowledgments, and to indicate what type of information is on the data lines. The control lines are used to indicate what the bus contains and to implement the bus protocol. The data lines of the bus carry information between the source and the

    In a bus configuration, each computer in the network is responsible for carrying out its own communications without the help of a central unit. A common communications cable (the bus) connects all of the computers in the network. As data travels along the cable, each unit performs a query to determine if it is the intended recipient of the message. The bus network is less expensive than the star configuration and is thus widely in use for systems that connect only a few microcomputers and systems that do not emphasize the sharing of common resources.…

    The first layer, physical, obtains a function that has the purpose of sending or receiving data by way of signals or voltages through physical aspects such as, cables or cards. With such data, signals, voltages, physical aspects of cables and cards, it is what is utilized in network connecting. The second layer, data-link, consists of encoded, decoded bits of data packets, which consists also of a management, knowledge transmission-protocol that works in connection with two additional internal layers, “media access control (MAC) layer and the logical link control (LLC) layer”, (2006. PP.S3). Both additional layers serve a function and purpose that determines how data is accessed from a network computer, gives it the data transmit permission, and controls in relation to checking for error(s), controls flow, and synchronization of the frame.…

    Typically this constitutes an interface for communicating with the device, through the specific computer bus or communications subsystem that the hardware is connected to, providing commands to and/or receiving data from the device, and on the other end, the requisite interfaces to the operating system and software applications. It is a specialized hardware-dependent computer program which is also operating system specific that enables another program, typically an operating system or applications software package or computer program running under the operating system kernel, to interact transparently with a hardware device, and usually provides the requisite interrupt handling necessary for any necessary asynchronous time-dependent hardware interfacing…

    The operating systems job is managing the memory. The operating system is in charge of bringing this process into main memory (Stallings, 2012). However the processor must deal with references within the program. Branch instructions include an address to reference the order to be executed next. Data reference instructions include the address of the byte or word of data referenced. The processor hardware and operating system software must be able to translate the memory references found in the code of the program into actual physical memory addresses, reflecting the current location of the program in main memory. (Stallings, 2012).…

    Bus networks use a common backbone to connect all devices. A single cable, the backbone functions as a shared communication medium that devices attach or tap into with an interface connector. A device wanting to communicate with another device on the network sends a broadcast message onto the wire that all other devices see, but only the intended recipient actually accepts and processes the message.…
