  • The Design of a Pascal Compiler Mohamed Sharaf, Devaun Mcfarland, Aspen Olmsted Part I
    The Design of A Pascal Compiler Mohamed Sharaf, Devaun McFarland, Aspen Olmsted Part I Mohamed Sharaf Introduction The Compiler is for the programming language PASCAL. The design decisions Concern the layout of program and data, syntax analyzer. The compiler is written in its own language. The compiler is intended for the CDC 6000 computer family. CDC 6000 is a family of mainframe computer manufactured by Control Data Corporation in the 1960s. It consisted of CDC 6400, CDC 6500, CDC 6600 and CDC 6700 computers, which all were extremely rapid and efficient for their time. It had a distributed architecture and was a reduced instruction set (RISC) machine many years before such a term was invented. Pascal Language Imperative Computer Programming Language, developed in 1971 by Niklaus Wirth. The primary unit in Pascal is the procedure. Each procedure is represented by a data segment and the program/code segment. The two segments are disjoint. Compiling Programs: Basic View Machine Pascal languag program Pascal e compile program filename . inpu r gp output a.out p t c Representation of Data Compute all the addresses at compile time to optimize certain index calculation. Entire variables always are assigned at least one full PSU “Physical Storage Unit” i.e CDC6000 has ‘wordlength’ of 60 bits. Scalar types Array types the first term is computed by the compiler w=a+(i-l)*s Record types: reside only within one PSU if it is represented as packed. If it is not packed its size will be the size of the largest possible variant. Data types … Powerset types The set operations of PASCAL are realized by the conventional bit-parallel logical instructions ‘and ‘ for intersection, ‘or’ for union File types The data transfer between the main store buffer and the secondary store is performed by a Peripheral Processor (PP).

  • Introduction to X86 Assembly
    CS342 Computer Security Handout # 5 Prof. Lyn Turbak Monday, Oct. 04, 2010 Wellesley College Lab 4: Introduction to x86 Assembly Reading: Hacking, 0x250, 0x270 Overview Today, we continue to cover low-level programming details that are essential for understanding software vulnerabilities like buffer overflow attacks and format string exploits. You will get exposure to the following: • Understanding conventions used by compiler to translate high-level programs to low-level assembly code (in our case, using Gnu C Compiler (gcc) to compile C programs). • The ability to read low-level assembly code (in our case, Intel x86). • Understanding how assembly code instructions are represented as machine code. • Being able to use gdb (the Gnu Debugger) to read the low-level code produced by gcc and understand its execution. In tutorials based on this handout, we will learn about all of the above in the context of some simple examples. Intel x86 Assembly Language Since Intel x86 processors are ubiquitous, it is helpful to know how to read assembly code for these processors. We will use the following terms: byte refers to 8-bit quantities; short word refers to 16-bit quantities; word refers to 32-bit quantities; and long word refers to 64-bit quantities. There are many registers, but we mostly care about the following: • EAX, EBX, ECX, EDX are 32-bit registers used for general storage. • ESI and EDI are 32-bit indexing registers that are sometimes used for general storage. • ESP is the 32-bit register for the stack pointer, which holds the address of the element currently at the top of the stack.
