Saturday April 21, 2007	Clarification(s) for Exam 2: Just a little confused on the difference between questions 4 and 5. On #5, do you just want us to convert the hex to binary and show how the binary is stored in memory? Show what values are stored in which memory locations. You may use binary or hexadecimal as you prefer (I would think hex is easier). In each case, the processor will write 96 bits (32 bits * 3 values) into memory. In Question #4 the processor writes the bits as three 32-bit values. In Question #5 the processor writes the bits as twelve 8-bit values.
Friday February 2, 2007	First assignment, in two parts, is now available from the assignments page.
