  1. TCSS 371A Machine Organization

  2. Getting Started • Get acquainted (take pictures) • Discuss purpose, scope, and expectations of the course • Discuss personal expectations & strategy for doing well • Review Web Page (http://faculty.washington.edu/lcrum) • Review Syllabus, Textbook, and Simulator book • Discuss Laboratory (CP 206D), Access, Etiquette, Equipment/supplies Usage • Discuss Homework Format • Laboratory Report Format

  3. Let’s Begin • Discuss the levels of abstraction involved in a computer solution to problem • Discuss major Numeric Data Types • Develop expertise in working with various numeric bases • especially base 10, base 2 (binary), and base 16 (hexidecimal) • Become proficient converting numbers from one base to another • Become proficient with 2’s complement arithmetic • Understand round off error, sign extension, and overflow • Understand representation of floating point numbers

  4. Abstractions:The levels of abstraction involved in a computer solution to problem: • Problem • Algorithm (Definite/Precise, Computable, Finite) • Computer Program • Machine Architecture • Microarchitecture implementation • Circuits • Devices • Electron or light flow Digital vs Analog Computers ?

  5. Develop expertise in working with various numeric bases • Base 10 • Base 2 (binary) • Base 16 (hexidecimal) • Others ? Be proficient converting numbers from one base to another • Base 10 to binary • Binary to Base 10 • Base 10 to Hexidecimal • Hexidecimal to Base 10 • Binary to Hexidecimal • Hexidecimal to Binary • Others ?

  6. Major Numeric Data Types • Unsigned Integers • Signed Integers • Alphanumeric Data – ASCII & UNICODE • Floating Point Numbers

  7. Become proficient with binary number representation • Unsigned binary Integers • Signed Binary Integers (see Text Figure 2.1) • 1’s Complement Binary Integers • 2’s complement Binary Integers • The binary point (what does it mean?)

  8. Signed Binary Integers:
