COAL Paper (Final Term)

This document contains an exam for a Computer Organization and Assembly Language course. The exam contains 5 questions covering various topics: 1) Types of transfers computer interconnection structures support, benefits of multiple-bus architectures, PCI signal lines, and addressing memory with a 16-bit address bus. 2) Compare dedicated and multiplexed bus architectures, including their pros and cons. 3) How various registers are used in the fetch and execute cycles of a CPU and how Intel implements memory segmentation at the architectural level. 4) Whether assembly language is still useful today and writing an assembly language program to add and multiply two numbers. 5) Writing an algorithm for the instruction cycles of a computer based on a
