👉 CPU (Central Processing Unit) computing, or simply computing on CPUs, is the fundamental method by which computers perform calculations and execute instructions. CPUs are designed to handle a wide range of tasks, from simple arithmetic operations to complex data processing, and they operate based on the von Neumann architecture, which includes a central processing unit, memory, and input/output devices. Each CPU core contains multiple processing units (cores) that can execute instructions in parallel, enhancing performance and efficiency. Modern CPUs incorporate advanced features like hyper-threading, cache memory, and multiple cores to improve speed and multitasking capabilities. They process data by fetching instructions from memory, decoding them, executing the necessary operations, and writing results back to memory or output devices, making them the core of a computer's computational power.
