Task


1. (a) TheFibonacci numbersare the numbers in the followinginteger sequence, called theFibonacci sequence, and are characterised by the fact that every number after the first two is the sum of the two preceding ones: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 114, … etc.

By definition, the first two numbers in the Fibonacci sequence are 0 and 1, and each subsequent number is the sum of the previous two. We define Fib(0)=0, Fib(1)=1, Fib(2)=1, Fib(3)=2, Fib(4)=3, etc. The first 22 Fibonacci numbersgiven below:

Fib(0)

Fib(1)

Fib(2)

Fib(3)

Fib(4)

Fib(5)

Fib(6)

Fib(7)

Fib(8)

Fib(9)

Fib(10)

Fib(11)

Fib(12)

Fib(13)

Fib(14)

Fib(15)

Fib(16)

Fib(17)

Fib(18)

Fib(19)

Fib(20)

Fib(21)

233

377

610

987

1597

2584

4181

6765

10946

Write a MARIE program to calculate Fib(n), where the user inputs n. For example, if the user inputs 7, the program outputs the value 13; if the user inputs 15, the program outputs the value 610; if the user inputs 20, the program outputs the value 6765 etc. You need to write and run the program using MARIE simulator. Please include appropriate comments to make your code readable.[10 marks]

(b) For some values of n, your program will not produce correct results. You can check this by gradually increasing the values of n and checking for the correct outputs. What is the maximum value of n for which your program produces a correct result? Why? Please comment on this [5 marks].

2. You are designing an instruction set for your computer. All the instructions are of same size (11 bits long). The size of an address field is 4 bits. You have already designed six 2-address instructions and 30 1-address instructions. How many 0-address instructions still you can fit? Justify your answer. [7 marks]

3. Write codes to implement the expression: A= (B + C) * (D – E) on 3-, 2-, 1- and 0-address machines. In accordance with programming language practice, computing the expression should not change the values of its operands. [8 marks]

Rationale

This assessment task covers topics on CPU operation and Instruction Set Architecture, and has been designed to ensure that you are engaging with the subject content on a regular basis. More specifically it seeks to assess your ability to:

  • be able to investigate the internal operation of the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and describe how it is used to execute instructions;
  • be able to investigate and describe in detail the essential elements of computer organisation including internal bus, memory, Input/Output ( I/O) organisations and interfacing standards and discuss how these elements function;

Simulating and investigating of internal operations of CPU and it's instruction execution

The code meets the specification. Code is well documented with comments. The program produces correct outputs in every input situations.

Code meets specification and is well documented with comments. Minor errors in explanationse.

Code meets specification. Most of the time produces correct results, however does not produce correct results for special inputs. Little documentation and comments.

Code meets specification but has errors in operation. Little commenting. Basic idea is expressed by the codes and explanations.

Code does not meet the specification.

Comprehension of internal elements of computer organisation

Answers are corrects. All steps are correctly shown.

All codes are accurately written.

All answers are correct with a minor error. All codes are correct except a minor error.

Few minor errors in calculating the address spaces. The steps show the clear understanding of the address space calculation.

All codes written correctly however the order were not maintained correctly.

The final result is not correct, however the calculations show the basic understanding of the instruction set architecture.

More than half of the codes are correct.

No attempt or incorrect calculations showing no or minimum understanding of the topic.

Codes do not meet the specification.

(b) For some values of n, your program will not produce co
ect results. You can check this by gradually increasing the values of n and checking for the co
ect outputs. What is the maximum value of n for which your program produces a co
ect result? Why? Please comment on this [5 marks].
Program can process and generate Fibonacci sequence up to first 23 Fibonacci numbers. After 23, all Fibonacci numbers exceed value 32767. The Simulator has only 16 bits registers for operations and cannot handle values greater than 32767,hence results are not co
ect.
