Re: CSSE232 Milestone 1 Completed
We have successfully completed milestone one by designing an assembly language and machine language for our microprocessor. We have also successfully written the assembly and machine language code to implement the relative primes program required.
Our design calls for a microprocessor with 16 registers, capable of 19 native instructions (with the ability to add more). We feel that this is a flexible design that will allow for any changes we might need to make in the future.
We are fairly confident in our design with the exception of our interrupt handling. This needs to be revised somewhat to take into account certain aspects of the material covered in Wednesday's lecture.
