A simple program
A Simple program
This program simply adds to numbers and stores the
result in the main memory.
•
It loads the value stored at the location address 104
16
into
AC (the value is 0023
16
= 35
10
), ),
(2*16
1
+3*16
0
) or 0000 0000 00
10 0011
=35)
•
It adds this value to the value stored at the location
address 105
16
(the value is FFE9
16
= (-23)
10
),
(1111 1111 1110
1001)=0000 0000 0001 0110+1 =-23)
•
Stores the sum into the location address 106
16
.
-
So what will be stored in the location address 106
16
?
Now let us discover what happens during each “Fetch,
decode, execute” cycle.

What do Assemblers do
A discussion on Assemblers
Assembly language
can be understood by the programmer
but not the computer!
Assembly language must be converted into
Machine Codes
(binary codes) before being executed or even stored in the
main memory.
An Assembler
is used to translate assembly language into
machine code
•
It reads a
source file
(assembly program) and convert it to an
object file
(Machine code)
Assembler VS Compiler
•
An assembler translates each mnemonic instruction (written in
assembly) to exactly one machine code.
•
With compilers, this is not usually the case
Remember -
Registers and Buses
MARIE
The Data path in MARIE
is shown in this figure
•
Note that a data word
(that is an instruction) in
the main memory travels
a relatively long path
before achieving the IR!
Remember -
The Fetch-Decode-Execute cycle
Instruction processing
MARIE, like any
other computer
architecture, follow
the basic machine
cycle:
•
the fetch, decode,
and execute cycle
Fetch
Decode

The Von Neumann model

What do Assemblers do
A discussion on Assemblers
An assembler directive
is an instruction that
is not supposed to be translated into machine
code
In assembly language we can also use
labels
in order to clarify the program
•
Example:
base 16 is the
default base when writing
assembly program for MARIE,
to specify the used base we
can use “constant directives”
such as DEC (decimal) or HEX
(Hexadecimal)
An introduction to MARIE, a simple computer system, explaining a program written in assembly language that adds two numbers and stores the result in memory. The process involves fetching, decoding, and executing instructions. The importance of assemblers in translating assembly language to machine code is also discussed, highlighting the role of registers and buses in instruction processing.
