CS 2734 Computer Organization II

Laboratory 11

Laboratory 11 will meet in the Sun laboratory. You will run a MIC-1 simulator to execute MAC-1 code which you have hand assembled. Prior to the laboratory, you must do the following:

Make sure that /opt/xtango is in your PATH. Execute
setenv
from the command line and look at the value of the PATH variable to verify that this is the case.
Make a subdirectory called sim.
Copy the files from /usr/local/courses/cs2734/micsim to your sim subdirectory.
Print a copy of the mic.doc file and read it over.
Run the simulator on the default MAC-1 program by typing:
runmic
Write a MAC-1 assembly language program to calculate the sum of the numbers from 1 to 100. The result is in the accumulator.
Hand assemble the program into ASCII hex. (If your assembler is working, you can use your assembler to produce the Hex.)
Run the program on the MIC-1 simulator.

In the laboratory you will be asked to demonstrate the correctness of your program by running it on the mic-1 in instruction mode. You will also be asked to demonstrate cycle and subcycle mode.
