Subject aims
For students to demonstrate a sound understanding of data
abstraction and structured programming in PASCAL, and basic
computer organisation.
Subject description
Data structures: Pascal pointer types, lists, stacks, queues,
trees, directed and undirected graphs and algorithms for the
manipulation of these structures, file types and organisations.
Elementary computer organisation using Pascal as the
descriptive language: the Von-Neumann fetch-execute cycle,
simple single register architectures, their constraints and
evolution to multiple register architectures (immediate, direct,
register, register indirect and indexed addressing modes).
Pascal to assembly language mappings for a multiple-register
architecture. Informal treatment of parser construction from a
language's syntax using assembly language as an example. The
assembly process. The fetch decode and execution process for
the multiple-register machine.
Internal representation of data types. Integer and floating
point arithmetic.
