The following table represents a small memory. Refer to this table for the following
questions.
Address Data
For these exercises, we can mostly use location and address interchangeably. An
address in memory and a
location in memory mean basically the same thing.
When we want to talk about the numeric value that represents the physical spot in
memory of some location, we pretty much always call that the
address of the location.
Using a realworld analogy, I can point to a house on my street and say, I wonder
who lives at that address or I wonder who lives at that location and mean the same
thing. But if I want to refer to the number that represents that house, I would always
use
address as inWhats your street address?
Also, remember that location doesnt mean the first location. Its the location
whose address is in other words, in the example above, the location whose address
is
What binary value does location contain?
What binary value does location contain?
The binary value within a given memory location can be interpreted in many ways.
We have seen that binary values can represent unsigned integers, signed magnitude
integers, s complement integers, ASCII values, machine instructions, etc.
Interpret the contents of location as a s complement integer. What is this
number in decimal?
Interpret the contents of location as a s complement integer. What is this
number in decimal?
Interpret the contents of location as a single ASCII character. Standard ASCII
values use only bits, so when you have a bit value and want to interpret it as a
single ASCII value, you just ignore the higherorder bits.
Interpret the contents of location as an unsigned integer. What is this number in
decimal?
Interpret the contents of location as an unsigned integer. What is this number in
decimal?
In the von Neumann model, the contents of a memory location can also be
interpreted as an instruction. If the binary pattern in location were interpreted as an
instruction, what type of instruction would it represent? Hint: The type of an
instruction is indicated by the opcode field.
A binary value can also be interpreted as a memory address. Suppose the value
stored in location is a memory address. To which location or address does it refer?
If the value stored in location is a memory address, what is the binary value
contained at the address pointed to by location
Suppose a computer has GB of RAM and an addressability of bits.
How many memory addresses are in this computer?
How many bytes are stored at each address in memory?
How many bits are in the computer's MAR?
How many bits are in the computer's MDR
Suppose a computer has MB of RAM and is byte addressable.
How many memory addresses are in this computer?
How many bytes are stored at each address in memory?
How many bits are in the computer's MAR?
How many bits are in the computer's MDR
