  • Lab 7: Floating-Point Addition 0.0
    Lab 7: Floating-Point Addition 0.0 Introduction In this lab, you will write a MIPS assembly language function that performs floating-point addition. You will then run your program using PCSpim (just as you did in Lab 6). For testing, you are provided a program that calls your function to compute the value of the mathematical constant e. For those with no assembly language experience, this will be a long lab, so plan your time accordingly. Background You should be familiar with the IEEE 754 Floating-Point Standard, which is described in Section 3.6 of your book. (Hopefully you have read that section carefully!) Here we will be dealing only with single precision floating- point values, which are formatted as follows (this is also described in the “Floating-Point Representation” subsec- tion of Section 3.6 in your book): Sign Exponent (8 bits) Significand (23 bits) 31 30 29 ... 24 23 22 21 ... 0 Remember that the exponent is biased by 127, which means that an exponent of zero is represented by 127 (01111111). The exponent is not encoded using 2s-complement. The significand is always positive, and the sign bit is kept separately. Note that the actual significand is 24 bits long; the first bit is always a 1 and thus does not need to be stored explicitly. This will be important to remember when you write your function! There are several details of IEEE 754 that you will not have to worry about in this lab. For example, the expo- nents 00000000 and 11111111 are reserved for special purposes that are described in your book (representing zero, denormalized numbers and NaNs).

  • The Hexadecimal Number System and Memory Addressing
    C5537_App C_1107_03/16/2005 APPENDIX C The Hexadecimal Number System and Memory Addressing nderstanding the number system and the coding system that computers use to U store data and communicate with each other is fundamental to understanding how computers work. Early attempts to invent an electronic computing device met with disappointing results as long as inventors tried to use the decimal number sys- tem, with the digits 0–9. Then John Atanasoff proposed using a coding system that expressed everything in terms of different sequences of only two numerals: one repre- sented by the presence of a charge and one represented by the absence of a charge. The numbering system that can be supported by the expression of only two numerals is called base 2, or binary; it was invented by Ada Lovelace many years before, using the numerals 0 and 1. Under Atanasoff’s design, all numbers and other characters would be converted to this binary number system, and all storage, comparisons, and arithmetic would be done using it. Even today, this is one of the basic principles of computers. Every character or number entered into a computer is first converted into a series of 0s and 1s. Many coding schemes and techniques have been invented to manipulate these 0s and 1s, called bits for binary digits. The most widespread binary coding scheme for microcomputers, which is recog- nized as the microcomputer standard, is called ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange). (Appendix B lists the binary code for the basic 127- character set.) In ASCII, each character is assigned an 8-bit code called a byte.

  • POINTER (IN C/C++) What Is a Pointer?
    POINTER (IN C/C++) What is a pointer? Variable in a program is something with a name, the value of which can vary. The way the compiler and linker handles this is that it assigns a specific block of memory within the computer to hold the value of that variable. • The left side is the value in memory. • The right side is the address of that memory Dereferencing: • int bar = *foo_ptr; • *foo_ptr = 42; // set foo to 42 which is also effect bar = 42 • To dereference ted, go to memory address of 1776, the value contain in that is 25 which is what we need. Differences between & and * & is the reference operator and can be read as "address of“ * is the dereference operator and can be read as "value pointed by" A variable referenced with & can be dereferenced with *. • Andy = 25; • Ted = &andy; All expressions below are true: • andy == 25 // true • &andy == 1776 // true • ted == 1776 // true • *ted == 25 // true How to declare pointer? • Type + “*” + name of variable. • Example: int * number; • char * c; • • number or c is a variable is called a pointer variable How to use pointer? • int foo; • int *foo_ptr = &foo; • foo_ptr is declared as a pointer to int. We have initialized it to point to foo. • foo occupies some memory. Its location in memory is called its address. &foo is the address of foo Assignment and pointer: • int *foo_pr = 5; // wrong • int foo = 5; • int *foo_pr = &foo; // correct way Change the pointer to the next memory block: • int foo = 5; • int *foo_pr = &foo; • foo_pr ++; Pointer arithmetics • char *mychar; // sizeof 1 byte • short *myshort; // sizeof 2 bytes • long *mylong; // sizeof 4 byts • mychar++; // increase by 1 byte • myshort++; // increase by 2 bytes • mylong++; // increase by 4 bytes Increase pointer is different from increase the dereference • *P++; // unary operation: go to the address of the pointer then increase its address and return a value • (*P)++; // get the value from the address of p then increase the value by 1 Arrays: • int array[] = {45,46,47}; • we can call the first element in the array by saying: *array or array[0].

  • Subtyping Recursive Types
    ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems, 15(4), pp. 575-631, 1993. Subtyping Recursive Types Roberto M. Amadio1 Luca Cardelli CNRS-CRIN, Nancy DEC, Systems Research Center Abstract We investigate the interactions of subtyping and recursive types, in a simply typed λ-calculus. The two fundamental questions here are whether two (recursive) types are in the subtype relation, and whether a term has a type. To address the first question, we relate various definitions of type equivalence and subtyping that are induced by a model, an ordering on infinite trees, an algorithm, and a set of type rules. We show soundness and completeness between the rules, the algorithm, and the tree semantics. We also prove soundness and a restricted form of completeness for the model. To address the second question, we show that to every pair of types in the subtype relation we can associate a term whose denotation is the uniquely determined coercion map between the two types. Moreover, we derive an algorithm that, when given a term with implicit coercions, can infer its least type whenever possible. 1This author's work has been supported in part by Digital Equipment Corporation and in part by the Stanford-CNR Collaboration Project.

  • Chapter 9: Memory Management
    Chapter 9: Memory Management I Background I Swapping I Contiguous Allocation I Paging I Segmentation I Segmentation with Paging Operating System Concepts 9.1 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002 Background I Program must be brought into memory and placed within a process for it to be run. I Input queue – collection of processes on the disk that are waiting to be brought into memory to run the program. I User programs go through several steps before being run. Operating System Concepts 9.2 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002 Binding of Instructions and Data to Memory Address binding of instructions and data to memory addresses can happen at three different stages. I Compile time: If memory location known a priori, absolute code can be generated; must recompile code if starting location changes. I Load time: Must generate relocatable code if memory location is not known at compile time. I Execution time: Binding delayed until run time if the process can be moved during its execution from one memory segment to another. Need hardware support for address maps (e.g., base and limit registers). Operating System Concepts 9.3 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002 Multistep Processing of a User Program Operating System Concepts 9.4 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002 Logical vs. Physical Address Space I The concept of a logical address space that is bound to a separate physical address space is central to proper memory management. ✦ Logical address – generated by the CPU; also referred to as virtual address. ✦ Physical address – address seen by the memory unit. I Logical and physical addresses are the same in compile- time and load-time address-binding schemes; logical (virtual) and physical addresses differ in execution-time address-binding scheme.

    André Pang Objective-C Internals Realmac Software 1 Nice license plate, eh? In this talk, we peek under the hood and have a look at Objective-C’s engine: how objects are represented in memory, and how message sending works. What is an object? 2 To understand what an object really is, we dive down to the lowest-level of the object: what it actually looks like in memory. And to understand Objective-C’s memory model, one must first understand C’s memory model… What is an object? int i; i = 0xdeadbeef; de ad be ef 3 Simple example: here’s how an int is represented in C on a 32-bit machine. 32 bits = 4 bytes, so the int might look like this. What is an object? int i; i = 0xdeadbeef; ef be af de 4 Actually, the int will look like this on Intel-Chip Based Macs (or ICBMs, as I like to call them), since ICBMs are little- endian. What is an object? int i; i = 0xdeadbeef; de ad be ef 5 … but for simplicity, we’ll assume memory layout is big-endian for this presentation, since it’s easier to read. What is an object? typedef struct _IntContainer { int i; } IntContainer; IntContainer ic; ic.i = 0xdeadbeef; de ad be ef 6 This is what a C struct that contains a single int looks like. In terms of memory layout, a struct with a single int looks exactly the same as just an int[1]. This is very important, because it means that you can cast between an IntContainer and an int for a particular value with no loss of precision.

Main CPU Cache memory • It boils down to – where do we put an item in the cache? – how do we identify the items in the cache? data • Two solutions – put item anywhere in cache (associative cache) – associate specific locations to specific items (direct mapped cache) Note: we will assume that memory requests are for words (4 Bytes) although an instruction can address a byte 2 Fully associative cache 00000 00001 To cache a data word, d, whose memory address is L: 00010 00011 •Put d in any location in the cache 00100 00101 • Tag the data with the memory address L. 00110 00111 01000 Cache index 01001 01010 01011 000 01001000 01100 Example: 001 001 01101 010 010 01110 • An 8-word cache 011 011 01111 (indexed by 000, … , 111) 100 11000100 10000 101 101 10001 • A 32-words memory 110 01110110 10010 111 111 10011 (addresses 00000, … , 11111) Tags Data 10100 10101 Cache 10110 10111 11000 Advantage: can fully utilize the cache capacity 11001 11010 Disadvantage: need to search all tags to find data 11011 11100 Memory word addresses 11101 11110 (without the 2-bits byte offset) 11111 Memory 3 Direct Mapped Cache (direct hashing) 00000 Assume that the size of the cache is N words.

A virtual address requires translation into a physical address to actually access the system's memory. • Memory Management Unit - The memory management unit (MMU) is responsible for trans- lating a process' virtual addresses into the corresponding physical address for accessing physical memory. It does all the calculation associating with mapping virtual address to physical addresses, and then populates the address translation structures. • Address Translation Structures - There are two kinds you learned about in lecture: segmen- tation and page tables. Segments are linearly addressed chunks of memory that typically contain logically-related information, such as program code, data, stack of a single process. They are of the form (s,i) where memory addresses must be within an offset of i from base segment s. A page table is the data structure used by a virtual memory system in a computer operating system to store the mapping between virtual addresses and physical addresses. Virtual addresses are used by the accessing process, while physical addresses are used by the hardware or more specifically to the RAM.
