Module Descriptor
This module is intended for students who wish to understand the relationship between computer software and hardware.
The course is centred on the study of a real world microprocessor (MIPS32).
Students will learn how to program in assembly language.
The relationship between a processor’s instruction set architecture and its performance is explained.
Various processor designs are described including single-cycle, multi-cycle, pipelined and parallel.
Design aspects of recent high-performance processor architectures are discussed.
Learning Outcomes
Write and debug simple assembly language programs.
Design and simulate simple logic circuits to perform processing or control functions.
Explain the relationships between instruction set architecture, processor design and performance.
Describe the most common processor organisations, understand how they operate and explain what their advantages and disadvantages are.
Determine the performance of various design optimisations.
Housekeeping
• Exam will be delivered via CSMoodle. Similar to previous exams, except:
‣ No questions of the kind “define X.” All questions are problems to be solved
‣ Part 1: Short problems with MCQ answers
‣ Part 2: Write a program in MIPS assembly
‣ Part 3: Hardware related question
• Do finish Assignment 5 (!)
