Bus-based Systems

Bus-based systems refer to a design architecture where various components of a computer, such as the CPU, memory, and peripherals, communicate through a shared communication pathway called a bus. This bus acts like a common highway, allowing data and signals to travel between different parts efficiently. By using a central bus, components can exchange information without needing direct connections to each other, simplifying system design, reducing wiring complexity, and enabling flexible expansion. This approach enhances coordination and data transfer within the computer, making the overall system more organized and scalable.
