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
asm Keywords
asm Keyword 1 Von Neuman vs Harvard Architecture
In the begining there were many forms of cpu archituecture but two forms of cpu Architecture stood out and became the most used.
Definition
the Deffination of Von Neuman cpu is one that subdivids cpu alu registers and instructions. the deffination of Harvard Architecture is one that taht physcaly seperates the storage instructions alu and conrtol unit.
Demonstration
not sure how
asm Keyword 2 fetch cycle
the cycle in which the computer most basic process is which it fetches a instruction and then dose an action that instruction is told to do.
Definition
the most basic cycle a computer can and has to perform to even be considered a computer which it dose from start up and shut down.
Demonstration
not sure how
asm Keyword 3 Binary and Hexadecimal Number Representation
looking at this statement what frist comes to mind is how to do it which a set of 2 state base represented by a 16 state base system.
Definition
binary and hexidecmal number representation is a systemt o represent decimal base 10 numbers in a specail way where was 2 in binary is 10 and in hex its 2 but 16 in binary is 1000 in hex its F0.
Demonstration
will come later
asm Keyword 4 Processor & Memory Organization
Definition
processors and memory are closely related due to teh fact that both can store and send input and out put teh only difference is that memory is that u are taking in a state in memory and giving that same state out but processing may change that saved state befor giving it out as an out put.
Demonstration
not sure how
asm Keyword 5 Registers(float pointer, general purpose/interger accumulater, Data)
Definition
these types of registers are actual data retaining Registers to processed in the cpu or pushed back out on the RAM for further instruction from CPU. Foat pointer is one type of register to be pointed at a data or interger to be processed or used Accumulater is a register that is a addition by byte Full adder or half adder with carry Data is the large chunk of information in large somes to be processed or used general purpose is self explanitory but however is the actual data waiting for be processed in stead of the entire data stream it is just but one part
Demonstration
No working code
asm Keyword 6 registers(program counter, flag/sataus, stack pointer
Definition
Program counter gives the process ID to the data being processed with a set varible as an interger Flag/Status is a interger varible that ntoifies the processor what to do either ignore or use in some sense stack pointer is pointing to the next thing to be processed and rolled out or to which Stakc the info is comming or going to
Demonstration
No working code
asm Keyword 7 Registers (index pointer)
Definition
index pointer im going to go out on a limb with out lookign it up this is the pointer to whcih the information just went so the stack pointer to which the next move will be going
Demonstration
no working code
asm Keyword 8 Cisc Vs Risc
Definition
Cisc cpu- Emphasis on hardware memory to memory: load and store incorperates stndard instuction set small code cycles high clock rate transistors used to hold complex algorythms Risc cpu- emphasis on software Register to register: load and store instuction set is independant large code cycles low clock rate tranistors mostly used for storage
Demonstration
unless i can post a link here i dont think i'll have one any time soon

Understanding the impact of number systems
Definition
number systems in a general sense is how we as human beings account for mutitudes of simular if not same objects or concepts, number systems change human life in early human due to befor the advent of number systems we could only barter. the most common number ststem today is the Decimal a base ten number system also refered to as count numbers or natural numbers. how ever this maybe the most commonly spoke or used to understand numbers or mathamtics the most used and applied number system is one we call binary a two base number system often refered to as zero and one.
Method
the method of understanding how number systems work is one that is on going even for the math literate (aka mathmatitions)(that most likely is spelt wrong) methods of which we use daily even as we think its possible that are minds are running amath matical sequnce to interpert and dictate and solve non math equations much like a computer may.
Measurement
we can only measure mathmatical progress and number system progress once we have no use for it any longer or when it solves or proves a natural law
Analysis
we both take advantage of and neglect numbersystem with out which we could not exist in the common “modern” era i put qoutes around modern as to refer the most common areas of civalization
hpc2 Keywords
hpc2 Keyword 1 Trinary
the 3 state type equivalent to binary whcih has 2 states
Definition
In my mind Trinay is the next evolutionary step in creating a better faster stronger and smarter computer or eletronic device,and must be redisgned form ground up or if not it would mean nothing more then a Binary approch to a Trinary qeustion.
Demonstration
Demonstration of the chosen keyword.
you ahve three states possible A B and C and each one of them has two out comes such as A can give you B and C B can give you A and C C can give you B and A
hpc2 Keyword 2 Tryte
Agian in my ideas a Tryte is a set of Trinary States that form a data code or a instruction needing to be solve aka processed.
Definition
Now mind u im working a different premise then most who are in the lair and who take HPC2 in that i belive a Tryte is not 9 states but instead 3 states in a single set and mutiples of these are a data stream with mutiple and useful outcomes.
Demonstration
The demonstration of this will be explained and shown below in HPC observation.
hpc2 Keyword 3 Tythe
the Name i ahve given to a single state with an trinary system other wise we would use bit which stand for binart interger transistor i belive and if we were to incorperate trinary wi would be come tit and i think that would be inaproperate but funny.
Definition
Agian a single state with a trinary system i am calling Tythe.
Demonstration
this will be expalined i more detail in my hpc2 observation 1
hpc2 Keyword 4 Tirnary Not Logic
the Not logic im thinking is not a single state in a single state out its a single in and 2 states out.
Definition
by Defination a trinary computer could be easy stated to be a putting a 0 and getting both 1 and 2 out.
