======Part 1====== =====Entries===== ====Entry 1: January 25, 2012==== ASM & HPC As an aid, feel free to use the following questions to help you generate content for your entries: * What action or concept of significance, as related to the course, did you experience on this date? * ^ Not much minus the fact that i will be using on C++ and C alot to write the CPU emulator and in HPC i will have to figuer out something maybe the trinary thing Joe and Matt have been kicking around like a lost dog to be scoulded at * Why was this significant? * ^ This is Significant do to the fact it will be a great refersher course as well as a CPU archutype course that can be used in greater scale in the forseable future and in HPC a Trinary system would be able to do complex algorythms in a faction of the time cutting down on over head and time delays by possible seconds if not minutes and by doing so might possble make a artifical snse of reason and not just a logical thought pattern * What concepts are you dealing with that may not make perfect sense? * Tinary systems have a verity of possible out comes and applications such as u get a set of 3 inputsn and that 3 inputs gives u either an single out put or mutiple out puts to be rpocessed like a binary stsyem would do or a completely different gate system where if u get A(example) u get B out or get C in and get A out or get B in and get C out (which btw i think is a waste of data) * What challenges are you facing with respect to the course? * many in ASM but nothing i havent encountered befor in some way but in HPC i dont know where to even fathum to begin like i said maybe i'll make documentation about both poossible ways to utilize a trinary CPU. ====Entry 2: Febuary 1, 2012==== This week i started reading on how to use forks for HPC Sys&networking so no HPC class updates as well ASM we have gates and now were to remake those gates by using just 3 of of the gates AND OR and NOT * What action or concept of significance, as related to the course, did you experience on this date? * ^Gates of logical brilliance imagen if we had to still make 18 different types of tubes to render the ideas * Why was this significant? * ^3 verus 18 cut down on the size of a transiter and the number of them instantly and the use of 1/0 insted of 1-18 different combnbinatiosn was a great thing * What concepts are you dealing with that may not make perfect sense? * ^how to make a CPU run on just gates that form flipflops that form registers that form a portion of memory. * What challenges are you facing with respect to the course? * ^possible trinary logic ====Entry 3: Febuary 14, 2012==== * What action or concept of significance, as related to the course, did you experience on this date? * that what transistors are are logic gates when u puit more then 1 logic gate/Tranistor together they become a circute * Why was this significant? * this is significant due to the fact that we can predict and use circutes both physicaly and virtualy * What concepts are you dealing with that may not make perfect sense? * Flip Flop AND and Flip Flop OR latch because of the gate needs to know one of the answers befor it can process * What challenges are you facing with respect to the course? * Opus due dates and Flip Flop use ====Entry 4: January Day, 2012==== * What action or concept of significance, as related to the course, did you experience on this date? * going over what a flip flop is used for and how the logic table pans out * Why was this significant? * because in ordered to do both my Trinary Reasrech for HPC2 and my ASM virtual processor i will need to know how the flip flop works in regards to at least a binary algorythm * What concepts are you dealing with that may not make perfect sense? * the Tinary Gates i have completed with my technique are NOT OR and AND currently i have only posted NOT and will work up documentation for OR and AND later * What challenges are you facing with respect to the course? * damn registers =====Keywords===== {{page>asmpart1&nofooter}} {{page>hpc2part1&nofooter}} =====Experiments===== ====Experiment 1==== ===Question=== What is the question you'd like to pose for experimentation? State it here. ===Resources=== Collect information and resources (such as URLs of web resources), and comment on knowledge obtained that you think will provide useful background information to aid in performing the experiment. ===Hypothesis=== Based on what you've read with respect to your original posed question, what do you think will be the result of your experiment (ie an educated guess based on the facts known). This is done before actually performing the experiment. State your rationale. ===Experiment=== How are you going to test your hypothesis? What is the structure of your experiment? ===Data=== Perform your experiment, and collect/document the results here. ===Analysis=== Based on the data collected: * Was your hypothesis correct? * Was your hypothesis not applicable? * Is there more going on than you originally thought? (shortcomings in hypothesis) * What shortcomings might there be in your experiment? * What shortcomings might there be in your data? ===Conclusions=== What can you ascertain based on the experiment performed and data collected? Document your findings here; make a statement as to any discoveries you've made. ====Experiment 2==== ===Question=== What is the question you'd like to pose for experimentation?
