It includes: 1. **Multi-Core Support**: Four cores that can execute instructions in parallel 2. **Thread Scheduling**: Round-robin scheduling between threads 3. **Bus Interconnect**: Arbitration mechanism to handle multiple masters 4. **Cache System**: L2 cache implementation with hit/miss handling 5. **Testbench**: Basic test environment for verification The design is simplified for clarity but demonstrates the key architectural concepts needed for a multi-threaded CPU system. The 2GHz clock frequency is achieved through careful timing in the testbench, and the system can be extended to include more sophisticated features like branch prediction, out-of-order execution, or larger cache hierarchies.
