    This document contains a question bank for the unit "Computer System Architecture" divided into three levels - Easy, Intermediate, and Difficult questions. The easy questions are worth 2 marks each and cover basic concepts like registers, memory types, buses, and register transfer. The intermediate questions are worth 5 marks each and require explanations and diagrams on more complex topics like shift operations, caching, and the IEEE floating point standard. The difficult questions are worth 10 marks each and expect detailed explanations of concepts such as the components of floating point numbers, arithmetic logic units, and system buses in computer architecture. Students are instructed to include diagrams in their answers for the intermediate and difficult questions. The question bank is formatted to include questions for multiple units of
