What is direct addressing?
Think about how the operand is provided in the instruction.
What happens when an interrupt occurs?
Consider the steps taken by the CPU during an interrupt.
What code represents the fetch phase in ICC?
Recall the phases we've discussed.
True or False: In direct addressing, the operand is stored in a separate memory location.
Think about how data is provided in the instruction.
Describe a scenario where both direct and indirect addressing might be used in a single program. Illustrate how data flows would differ.
Think about data structures and variable management.
Explain how the CPU's handling of interrupts can impact overall system performance. Can you propose a method to optimize this process?
Consider race conditions and the impact of many interrupts on CPU resources.
