M.S.P.Velayutha Nadar Lakshmithaiammal Polytechnic College, Pavoorchatram

The document is an exam paper for a polytechnic college containing instructions and questions about computer architecture and assembly language. It is divided into three parts: Part A contains 10 multiple choice questions worth 1 mark each about topics like logic micro operations, pipelining, I/O interfaces, and memory concepts. Part B contains 5 short answer questions worth 3 marks each about CISC characteristics, programmed I/O, cache memory and conditional jumps. Part C contains 5 long answer questions worth 10 marks each allowing a choice between two topics for each, covering areas such as arithmetic circuits, pipelining, DMA, CPU-IOP communication, cache memory organization and page replacement, 8086 architecture, MOV instructions, D
