1. An ISA may be implemented by many different
processor circuits. Why is this of value in the marketplace?
2. What data structure is used by the machine code program placed
in the instruction memory of a fixed-length instruction
representation processor?
3. The bit strings of a machine code program can be thought of as
having a type. What is a reasonable name for this type?
1. An ISA is the same as Compiler writer model, as we know programming model of a processor in assembly language.and we can say it is an abstract model of a computer, also referred to as computer architecture.
Marketplace value due to below reason:
2. Machine code, consisting of machine language instructions, is a low-level programming language used to directly control a computer's central processing unit (CPU). Machine code written in binary.
The format of a machine instruction is
Label Mnemonic [Operand, Operand]. [; Comments]
