KXA152 Practical (Computer): Index

KXA152 - Computer Organisation & Architecture

Practical Work Files (Digital Computer)

The following resources are provided here for students of KXA152 Computer Organisation & Architecture in doing their practical and assignment work. There is also a write-up for Assignment 1 and for Assignment 2, and a description and a link list for the IAS machine. There are also descriptions for the Model 0, the Model 1, the Model 2, and the IAS SPS.

In the table, tutorial scripts in italic have no Test Scripts associated with them, and the Test Scripts marked in italic have no formal tests included with them Note particularly that there is no formal test included in TstIASa.

Important: The names of the formal test must be suffixed by S if you are taking the test on the Hobart campus, and by N otherwise. Thus, for Test B you will use either the test script TstIASbS if you are on the Hobart Campus, and TstIASbN otherwise.

All the files linked to below may be copied only by students of KXA152.
