The control unit of a CPU performs two main tasks: 1) it sequences the processor through a series of micro-operations in the proper order based on the program being executed, and 2) it generates control signals to execute each micro-operation. Micro-operations include transferring data between registers, transferring data between a register and external bus, and arithmetic logic unit operations. The control unit uses control signals to open and close logic gates to transfer data and operate the ALU.

The control signals needed in each step of intruction execution can be generated by the finite state machine method, also called hardwired control, or, alternatively, by the microprogrammed control method discussed below.
Basic Concepts of Microprogramming:
Control word (CW):
A word with each bit for one of the control signals. Each step of the instruction execution is represented by a control word with all of the bits corresponding to the control signals needed for the step set to one.
Microinstruction:
Each step in a sequence of steps in the execution of a certain machine instruction is considered as a microinstruction, and it is represented by a control word. All of the bits corresponding to the control signals that need to be asserted in this step are set to 1, and all others are set to 0 (horizontal organization).
Microprogram:
Composed of a sequence of microinstructions corresponding to the sequence of steps in the execution of a given machine instruction.
Microprogramming:
The method of generating the control signals by properly setting the individual bits in a control word of a step.
The control unit (CU) is a component of a computer's central processing unit (CPU) that directs the operation of the processor. It tells the computer's memory, arithmetic/logic unit and input and output devices how to respond to a program's instructions.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. CONTROL UNIT
• KEY POINTS
• The execution of an instruction involves the
execution of a sequence of substeps, generally
called cycles. For example, an execution may
consist of fetch, execute, and interrupt cycles. Each
cycle is in turn made up of a sequence of more
fundamental operations, called micro-operations. A
single micro-operation generally involves a transfer
between registers, a transfe between a register and
an external bus, or a simple ALU operation.
3. CONTROL UNIT
• KEY POINTS
• The control unit of a processor performs two tasks:
(1) It causes the processor to ste through a series of
micro-operations in the proper sequence, based on
the program being executed, and (2) it generates the
contro signals that cause each micro-operation to be
executed.
4. CONTROL UNIT
• KEY POINTS
• The control signals generated by the control unit
cause the opening and closing of logic gates,
resulting in the transfer of data to and from registers
and the operation of the ALU.
• each of the smaller cycles involves a series of steps,
each of which involves the processor registers. We
will refer to these steps as micro-operations.
5. The Fetch Cycle
• Four registers are involved:
1. Memory address register (MAR): Is connected to
the address lines of the system bus. It specifies the
address in memory for a read or write operation.
2. • Memory buffer register (MBR): Is connected to the
data lines of the system bus. It contains the value
to be stored in memory or the last value read from
memory.
3. • Program counter (PC): Holds the address of the
next instruction to be fetched.
4. • Instruction register (IR): Holds the last instruction
fetched
6. The Fetch Cycle
• Steps
1. the address of the next instruction to be executed is in the
program counter (PC);
2. move that address to the memory address register (MAR)
3. bring in the instruction:The desired address (in the MAR) is
placed on the address bus, the control unit issues a READ
command on the control bus, and the result appears on the
data bus and is copied into the memory buffer register (MBR)
4. increment the PC by the instruction length to get ready for the
next instruction.(Because these two actions (read word from
memory, increment PC) do not interfere with each other, we
can do them simultaneously to save time.)
5. move the contents of the MBR to the instruction register (IR).
8. The Execute Cycle
• there are a number of different sequences of micro-
operations that can occur , due to the variety opcodes.
• ADD R1, X
• t1: MAR ← (IR(address))
• t2: MBR ← Memory
• t3: R1 ← (R1) + (MBR)
9. micro-operations
• micro-operations fall in to one of the following
categories:
1. Transfer data from one register to another.
2. Transfer data from a register to an external
interface (e.g., system bus).
3. Transfer data from an external interface to a
register.
4. Perform an arithmetic or logic operation, using
registers for input and output
10. tasks
• The control unit performs two basic tasks:
• Sequencing: The control unit causes the processor
to step through a series of micro-operations in the
proper sequence, based on the program being
executed.
• Execution: The control unit causes each micro-
operation to be performed.
12. Interfaces
Three types of control signals are used: those
1. that activate an ALU function,
2. those that activate a data path,
3. and those that are signals on the external system
bus or other external interface.
All of these signals are ultimately applied directly as
binary inputs to individual logic gates.
• E.g : to transfer the contents of the PC to the MAR.
The control unit does this by activating the control
signal that opens the gates between the bits of the
PC and the bits of the MAR.
14. HARDWIRED
IMPLEMENTATION
• To simplify the control unit logic, there should be a
unique logic input for each opcode This function can
be performed by a decoder, which takes an encoded
input and produces a single output.
• Timing Generator: generate timing signal consist of
counter and decoder ,with pulse there is single
timing signal.
18. CISC & RISC
• Complex instruction set computers (CISC)
o These machines provided a variety of
instructions that may perform very
complex tasks
o To ease task for programmers
o Use large numbers of addressing modes
o Require many clock cycles per instruction
o Used a number of different instruction
formats of varying lengths
19. CISC & RISC
• Reduced instruction set computers (RISC)
o Fewer and simpler instructions
o Few instruction formats
o Few cycle per instruction
o Large number of internal CPU registers
o Best suited with pipeline processors
