Von Neumann architecture, conceived by John von Neumann in the mid-20th century, has been the fundamental blueprint for modern computers. It features a unified memory space for data and instructions, sequential processing, and a stored-program concept, enabling remarkable advancements in computing. However, this architecture is not without limitations. The bottleneck lies in the von Neumann architecture's inability to simultaneously process data and instructions, leading to the von Neumann bottleneck. This restriction hampers computational efficiency, particularly in scenarios demanding high-speed data processing. Can you think of other limitations ?
