Von Neumann Architecture
Historically, there have been two types of computers: those that have a very defined function and cannot be programmed, such as calculators, and those that can be programmed (these can be configured to perform a variety of activities, and they store applications).
The contemporary computer is built on John von Neumann’s concept of stored programs. Programs and data are kept in a distinct storage unit called memories in this stored-program approach, and they handle the same. A computer developed with this design would be considerably easier to reprogram, thanks to this unique notion.
