HardwareSubsystemen
HardwareSubsystemen are distinct hardware modules within a computing system that provide defined functionality and interface with other components through standardized protocols. They can be implemented as parts of a single chip, as discrete circuit boards, or as modular blocks within a computer or embedded device. By encapsulating function, a subsystem can be developed, tested, and upgraded independently from other parts of the system.
Common examples include the processing subsystem (the central processing unit, graphics processing unit, and digital signal
In modern computers and devices, subsystems are coordinated by firmware and operating-system drivers and may be
