+# Memory Consisitency Model.
+
+- Schemes faster execution to sequential consistency.
+- Only those programs willing to be non-deterministic will not sync. ("data race")
+
+
+# User level sync.
+
+Spin locks: Continuously tries to acquire lock.
+
+- Allow only one thread to enter critical section.
+- No sleeping. (Busy waiting, so CPU intensive)
+
+Solution:
+
+- Atomic exchange: Compare and swap. (Easy to understand)
+- load linked(ll) and store conditional(sc). (I'm lasy, plz refer to [wiki](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load-link/store-conditional) for more details)

+## Performance
+
+### Definition
+
+Performance is tasks over time (tasks per day, hour, minute, second......).
+
+Simple metric: $\text{performance}(x) = \dfrac{1}{\text{execution} \_ \text{time} (x)}$
+
+### Aspects of CPU performance
+
+$$
+\text{CPU time} = \dfrac{\text{Seconds}}{\text{Program}} = \dfrac{\text{Instructions}}{\text{Program}} \times \dfrac{\text{Cycles}}{\text{Instructions}} \times \dfrac{\text{Seconds}}{\text{Cycles}}
+$$
+
+Three key factors:
+
+- Inst count
+- CPI (Clock per inst)
+- Clock rate.
+
+|              | Inst Count |     CPI     | Clock Rate  |
+| :----------: | :---------: | :---------: | :-------: |
+|   Program   | $\sqrt{}$ |            |             |
+|   Compiler   | $\sqrt{}$ | $\sqrt{}$ |             |
+|   Inst.Set   | $\sqrt{}$ | $\sqrt{}$ |             |
+| Organization |            | $\sqrt{}$ | $\sqrt{}$ |
+|  Technology  |            |            | $\sqrt{}$ |
+
+- Program : Reduce inst count (not code length!)
+- Compiler: Optimize to reduce inst count, reduce stall by code movement.
+- Inst.Set.: CISC has a larger inst.set. Consequently, its inst count will surely be smaller thanm RISC. However, RISC commands may be better tailored for pipeline.
+- Organization: Increase operation speed and use simple design to allow a higher clock rate.
+- Technology: Improve the clock rate (Moore's law)
+
+Harvard architecture vs. von Neumann architecture:
+
+- Harvard architecture has separate storage and signal pathways for instructions and data, while von Neumann architecture shares storage and signal pathways between instructions and data.
+- Harvard architecture does not have structural hazards in pipelining, because instructions and data are stored separately.
+
+## Memory Hierarchy
+
+Register, cache, memory, disk, tape.
+
+The Principle of Locality:
+- temporal locality
+- spatial locality 
+
+### Cache
+
+Accessing register is much faster than memory, so we need cache to bridge that gap.
+
+- Direct mapped cache : mapping one memory address to one cache index. 
+- Two-way Set Associative Cache: $N$ direct mapped caches operates in parallel ($N$ typically $2 \sim 4$ . In this case $N = 2$ )

+# IO
+
+## IO vs Mem
+
+Common: Both are readable/writable.
+
+Difference: IO is async, while mem is sync.
+
+## DMA & IC
+
+DMA: Direct Memory Access. A feature of computer systems that allows certain hardware subsystems to access main system memory independently of the central processing unit (CPU).
+
+IC: Interrupt Controller. A hardware device that handles interrupts sent on the computer bus by various hardware devices, such as a hard drive controller, a keyboard controller, system timer, or a mouse controller.

+Cyliner, Header, Sector. (C, H, S)
