What is a difference between architecture and organization?

Answer

Architecture refers to those characteristics you need to consider in order to develop a program in assembly language. Those includes microprocessors instruction set, word size (8 bits, 16 bits, etc.), available registers (those visible for programming), data types and addressing modes.

Organization refers to implementation, characteristics not visible when programming in assembly like the controls signals to actually implement instructions, what technology is used to implement RAM or microprocessors components, operational frecuency within components, physical size of each components, number of data paths used to communicates components inside the microprocessor.

Arhitecture is whether your car have automatic or manual transmission. Organization is whether it use a carburator or electronic fuel injection.
