In other words, it is concerned with how computers, as machines, execute instructions at many levels, including the hardware and assembly language levels. Students learn about the fundamental technological structure and evolution of computers, fundamental hardware components, MIPS instructions set architectures and its assembly language, and processor microarchitecture including the control unit (MIPS is used as an example).This course can be divided into 2 chapters: Software and Hardware. In the software chapter (Sections 1-3) you will learn how to write an assembly language program for MIPS architecture and in the hardware chapter (Sections 4-7), I will show you how the internal components of the MIPS processor work together to execute your program. Finally, I prepared several tutorials and assignments with their solutions to help you better understand this topic.The emphasis of the course is on understanding how computers work. This will provide a basis for further study of computer architecture and computer software. The MIPS processor, the subject of this course, has a well designed architecture and is particularly fruitful to study. However, the goal of the course is not to turn you into a MIPS programmer, but to give you an understanding of all computer systems.Course Outline1.

Almost every lecture and component of the course directly leads to a hands-on laboratory assignment with a solution. The more you practice with MIPS hardware and software, the more proficient you will become.I use lots and lots of examples. I take you step-by-step through the lessons - each time providing sample code and documentation to make sure you are supported through the course.The course does not waste your time. From the very beginning, we jump right into your first project - Let's Get Started.I am here to help. I am an educator with a singular focus on providing a meaningful experience for my students. And, while I cannot do the work for you, I am willing to work WITH you to help you succeed.The goal of this course is to shed light on the obscure interface layer between hardware and software. In this context, we will go over instruction set architectures, assembly programming, computer/memory organization, machine language conversion, data bus, and sub-routines, which are all important topics in computer architecture. This course teaches students about the core hardware components of a computer and how they interact with one another. It educates students about the computer's many layers, such as the application level, operating system level, assembly language level, and machine language level.Computer architectures, which I recommend to anyone working on electronic system design or computer programming and who is interested in processor design, have opened many doors for me in my own career. I hope you find this tutorial useful as well.
