Abstract

V originále

The paper deals with the possibilities that new hardware architectures bring for computer users. The significant expansion of mobile devices, IoT, and wearables has enabled new processor platforms. Among personal computers and many server platforms, the most common processors are based on the x86 instruction set-based architecture. On the other hand, mobile devices use leading processors based on the ARM (Advanced RISC Machine) architecture, which matches desktop processors' performance in many respects. It turns out that the new approach of creating a chip architecture can bring significantly higher processor performance and at the same time save energy consumption. One of the technologies is the creation of SoC (System on a Chip). The paper focuses on a practical comparison of Intel and Apple processors' performance, representing two different architectures. It presents the results of functional tests, their comparison and demonstrations of the possibilities of using the new architecture in mobile computers and desktops and notebooks. For comparison, the paper uses benchmarks, comparison of compilation and execution of programs, and standard applications.
