Synopsis

This booklet is an introduction to Intel assembly language provided as supplementary material for readers of The Essentials of Computer Organization and Architecture who desire a deeper examination of assembly language programming. The authors present the most popular subset of Intel assembly language instruction supported by the 80x86 instruction set architecture.

This supplement covers:

- The Intel Architecture: Processor types, registers, memory organization, and addressing modes
-Assembly Programming Environment: The programming process, elements of an assembly language
- 80x86 Instructions: Data movement, string handling and indexing, arithmetic, branching and control structures, and Boolean and bit manipulation.
- Procedures and Stacks: Procedure calling and parameter passing
- Input/Output: Brief coverage of character and string I/O as well as numeric I/O.

The authors included many program fragments to illustrate the use of the instructions introduced in this resource. Each chapter includes a set of review questions and short programming assignments intended to reinforce the most important ideas of the chapter. A summary of the instructions and addressing modes introducted in the text is provided in an appendix.
