Other Quizlet setsRelated questionsIn computers, a pipeline is the continuous and somewhat overlapped movement ofinstruction to the processor or in the arithmetic steps taken by the processor to perform an instruction. Pipelining is the use of a pipeline. Without a pipeline, a computer processor gets the first instruction from memory, performs the operation it calls for, and then goes to get the next instruction from memory, and so forth. While fetching (getting) the instruction,
the arithmetic part of the processor is idle. It must wait until it gets the next instruction. With pipelining, the computer architecture allows the next instructions to be fetched while the processor is performing arithmetic operations, holding them in a buffer close to the processor until each instruction operation can be performed. The staging of instruction fetching is continuous. The result is an increase in the number of instructions that can be performed during a given time
period. Recommended textbook solutions

Introduction to the Theory of Computation3rd EditionMichael Sipser 389 solutions Which part of the computer executes instructions of a program?The CPU. The CPU is the heart of the computer. A program is a sequence of instructions stored in main memory. When a program is run, the CPU fetches the instructions and executes or follows the instructions.
When a computer program is executed instructions and are stored in?When the CPU executes a program, that program is stored in the computer's main memory (also called the RAM or random access memory). In addition to the program, memory can also hold data that is being used or processed by the program.
What is the hardware within a computer that executes a program called as?CPU. The CPU is the brain of the computer that processes and executes digital instructions from various programs; its clock speed determines the computer's performance and efficiency in processing data.
Is a physical part of the computer that sequences and executes instructions?In a computer, “ CPU ” is the part that sequences and executes the instructions.
