Consider memory storage of a 32-bit word stored at memory word 34 in a byte addressable memory. (a) What is the byte address of memory word 34? (b) What are the byte addresses that memory word 34 spans? (c) Draw the number 0x3F526372 stored at word 342 in both big-endian and little-endian machines. Clearly label the byte address corresponding to each data byte value.
In a microcomputer, the addresses of memory locations are binary numbers that identify each memory circuit where a byte is stored. The number of bits that make up an address depends on how many memory locations there are. Since the number of bits can be very large, the addresses are often specified in hex instead of binary. If a microcomputer uses a 24-bit address, how many different memory locations are there? What is the largest number that can be How many hex digits are needed to represent the address of a memory location? What is the hex address of the 172th memory location? (Note: The first address is always ) The computer program is stored in the lowest 3 kbyte block of memory. Give the start and end address of this What is the BCD code of the hex address of the 172th memory location?
In a computer instruction format, the instruction length is 16 bits, and the size of an address field is 4 Is it possible to have: 15 instructions with 3 addresses, 14 instructions with 2 addresses, 31 instructions with one address, and 16 instructions with zero addresses, using this format? Justify your answer.
Unlike a byte that is always 8 bits, word size can vary from machine to machine. Let's say we have a 16-bit system (word size is 2 bytes) and a memory unit that has 10 address lines. Because there are 10 address bits, we can have 210 unique addresses, hence 1024 addresses. If we are working with something word-addressable, that means each word has a unique address, and we canstore 1024 words. The memory size is 1 kiloword, or equivalently, 2kilobytes because each word is 2 bytes long. The address of the first word is 0, the second word is 1, the third word is 2, and the last word is 1023.Now, with 4 address lines and a word size of 4 bits, what is the address of the last word?
Show how the following values would be stored by byteaddressable machines with 32-bit words, using little endian and then big endian format. Assume that each value starts at address 10 .

Write an assembly language program to define an array of word size and initialize it with 5 numbers. Use shift instruction to check the last bit of each of the numbers(to check if the number is positive or negative). If the last tit is a 1, it means the number is negative. Count the positive numbers that this array contains.
