Presumably by analogy to production lines in factories?
- sroussey 2y agoActually, it’s just obvious when you design the most basic ALU and the circuits for doing the carry.
- codedokode 2y agoPipelining requires inserting extra (costly) flip-flops and intuitively one might think that this would decrease the performance. It is not that easy.
- NotCamelCase 2y agoIs it really that much different than e.g. a cook preparing carrots while onions are being cooked? Nobody needed to invent this as far as my knowledge of history goes; so, maybe there really is nothing new under the sun :) Joking aside, of course, the ingenuity lies in finding a fitting solution to problem at hand, as well as knowing how to apply it.
