An architect is trained and licensed in the planning and designing of buildings, and participates in supervising the construction of a building. Etymologically, architect derives from the Latin architectus, itself derived from the Greek arkhitekton (arkhi-, chief + tekton, builder), i.e. chief builder. A looser usage of Architect is: the translator of the building user's requirements of and from a building into an inhabitable environment. Moreover, the words architect and architecture are used in the disciplines of engineering, e.g. computer software architect; however, in some of the world's jurisdictions, the professional and commercial uses of these etymologic variants, are legally protected from such loose denotations. Professionally, an architect's decisions affect public safety, and thus an architect must undergo specialized training consisting of advanced education and a practicum (or internship) for practical experience to earn a license to practice architecture. The practical, technical, and academic requirements for becoming an architect vary by jurisdiction (see below). From Wikipedia under the

From Google News Search: "Architects" What are the main problems faced by micro architects? Q. When considering the microarchitectures, what are the main problems that are faced by the micto architects presently? Asked by T T - Fri Aug 29 14:09:26 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. At the highest level, silicon area and power are always concerns, but schedule pressure is king. Day to day, latency vs. cycle time is probably the #1 thing. You can speed up a system by pipelining it deeply, but if that pipe has an instruction in flight that is holding a result you need in a subsequent operation - and you can't reorder the operation to avoid it - then you have to wait, that is, stall the pipe. This slows your system down. So you have to strike a balance to achieve the best overall throughput for the types of algorithms you intend to implement. Another related issue is keeping the pipe full, that is, avoiding delays from things like RAM access that can cause "bubbles" (unused instruction slots) in your processing… [cont.] Answered by more slack - Fri Aug 29 14:39:39 2008 Architects drawings incorrect.

If it was a sketch, the architect gets some leeway; if a finished drawing, he fogged up. It's easy to change the roof pitch all the way around if nothing is begun. Answered by Beau D.
