B
data & power
C
questions & answers
D
ant & dec
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Von Neumann architecture is based on the stored-program computer concept, where instruction data and program data are stored in the same memory. This design is still used in most computers produced today.

Detailed explanation-2: -The “classical” von Neumann architecture consists of main memory, a central-processing unit (CPU) or processor or core, and an interconnection between the memory and the CPU. Main memory consists of a collection of locations, each of which is capable of storing both instructions and data.

Detailed explanation-3: -The term “von Neumann architecture” has evolved to refer to any stored-program computer in which an instruction fetch and a data operation cannot occur at the same time (since they share a common bus). This is referred to as the von Neumann bottleneck, which often limits the performance of the corresponding system.

Detailed explanation-4: -The key elements of Von Neumann architecture are: data and instructions are both stored as binary . data and instructions are both stored in main memory.

Detailed explanation-5: -In 1945 John Von Neumann was credited with designing the fundamental concept behind all modern computer systems. Von Neumann Architecture describes a system where a single control unit manages the Fetch-Execute cycle, and both instructions and data are stored in the same memory unit.
