Learning objectives
- Explain Superscalar, Out-of-Order, SIMD, and Speculation in the language of the current curriculum, not just the source book.
- Apply Superscalar, Out-of-Order, SIMD, and Speculation to one concrete learner task or example inside this semester.
- Use
computer-organization-and-designas a selective source of truth when the learner-facing explanation is not enough.
Prerequisites
- The earlier concept pages and practice tasks in the current module.
