Description:
The objective of this course is to enable students to understand: One of our goal is to help students approach programming problems with machine-level mind set,It is important to think of CPU as an interactive tool, and learn to monitor each actions as directly as possible. The physical organization of a computer including its registers, data flow, micro operations and control functions How software is executed on a processor including Instruction cycle, memory reference, interrupts Functionality of other important components of computer system including external memory, input/output interface How to write efficient software for a processor including machine representation of data and instructions; machine language and assembly language programming; computer arithmetic, addressing modes; interrupts and input/output programming.

This course will cover the following areas: Micro operations Organization and design of Basic Computer (Accumulator Based) Programming the Basic Computer Instructions: Language of the Computer Arithmetic for Computers Data Path and Control Input/Output Programming the Intel x86 Family o IA-32 Processor Architecture o Data Transfer, Addressing o Integer Arithmetic o Conditional Processing o Procedure, Stack Frames o Software Interrupts
