Whilst ram might be several gigabytes in size, rom will often be a few kilobytes. Its not uncommon, especially in the world of embedded processors and dsps, for a cpu to have a bus for programs and a bus for data, and allow both to operate simultaneously. With this step, the cpu becomes somewhat divorced from the spe cific details of external device interfaces. The generation output from the wind farm is modeled as negative load. The elimination of the need for connecting more than one output to the same bus leads to faster bus transfer and simple control. The local bus architecture takes a slightly different approach to that used by system io buses such as isa, mca and eisa by taking cards off of the expansion bus and connecting them directly to the cpu or across a bridge integrated circuits that serve as signal amplifiers and repeaters to the cpu.
