Welcome to Assembly LanguageWelcome to Assembly Language
• Assembly language is the oldest programming language.
• Of all languages, it bears the closest resemblance to the native language of a computer.• Direct access to a computer’s hardware
• To understand a great deal about your computer’s architecture and operating system
Irvine, Kip R. Assembly Language for Intel-Based Computers 5/e, 2007. Web site Examples 4
Some Good Questions to Ask [1/4]
• What background should I have?• Computer programming (C++, C#, JAVA, VB…)
• What is an assembler?• A program that converts source-code programs from
assembly language into machine language• MASM (Microsoft Assembler), TASM (Borland Turbo
Assembler)• Linker (a companion program of Assembler) combines
individual files created by an assembler into a single executable program.
• Debugger provides a way for a programmer to trace the execution of a program and examine the contents of memory.
Irvine, Kip R. Assembly Language for Intel-Based Computers 5/e, 2007. Web site Examples 5
Some Good Questions to Ask [2/4]
• What types of programs will I create?• 16-Bit Real-Address Mode: MS-DOS, DOS emulator
• 32-Bit Protected Mode: Microsoft Windows
• How does assembly language (AL) relate to machine language?• One-to-one relationship
• How do C++ and Java relate to AL? E.g., X=(Y+4) *3
mov eax, Yadd eax, 4mov ebx, 3imul ebxmov X, eax
Irvine, Kip R. Assembly Language for Intel-Based Computers 5/e, 2007. Web site Examples 6
Some Good Questions to Ask [3/4]
• What will I learn?• Basic principles of computer architecture
• Basic Boolean logic
• How IA-32 processors manage memory, using real mode, protected mode and virtual mode
• How high-level language compilers (such as C++) translate statements into assembly language and native machine code
• Improvement of the machine-level debugging skills (e.g., errors due to memory allocation)
• How application programs communicate with the computer’s operating system via interrupt handlers, system calls, and common memory areas
Irvine, Kip R. Assembly Language for Intel-Based Computers 5/e, 2007. Web site Examples 7
Some Good Questions to Ask [4/4]
• Is AL portable?• A language whose source program can be compiled and run
on a wide variety of computer systems is said to be portable.• AL makes no attempt to be portable.
• It is tied to a specific processor family.
• Why learn AL?• Embedded system programs• Programs to be highly optimized for both space and runtime
speed• To gain an overall understanding of the interaction between
the hardware, OS and application programs• Device driver: programs that translate general operating
system commands into specific references to hardware details

• Virtual Machines• Specific Machine Levels

Virtual Machines Virtual Machines [1/2]
• Virtual machine concept• A most effective way to explain how a computer’s hardware
and software are related• In terms of programming languages
• Each computer has a native machine language (language L0) that runs directly on its hardware
• A more human-friendly language is usually constructed above machine language, called Language L1
• Programs written in L1 can run two different ways:• Interpretation – L0 program interprets and executes L1
instructions one by one• Translation – L1 program is completely translated into an
L0 program, which then runs on the computer hardware
Irvine, Kip R. Assembly Language for Intel-Based Computers 5/e, 2007. Web site Examples 13
Virtual Machines Virtual Machines [2/2]
• In terms of a hypothetical computer• VM1 can execute commands written in language L1.• VM2 can execute commands written in language L2.• The process can repeat until a virtual machine VMn can be
designed that supports a powerful, easy-to-use language.• The Java programming language is based on the virtual machine
concept.• A program written in the Java language is translated by a Java
compiler into Java byte code. • Java byte code: a low-level language that is quickly executed at
run time by Java virtual machine (JVM).• The JVM has been implemented on many different computer
systems, making Java programs relatively system-independent.
