TCS 402/TIT 402: B Tech. (CS/IT) (Fourth Semester) Mid Semester Examination, 2014

This document contains a mid-semester exam for a Computer Organization course. The exam has two sections: Section A contains 6 multiple choice questions testing concepts like program counters, 2's complement subtraction, computer generations, and binary operations. Section B contains 6 long-form questions asking about common bus systems, binary floating point representation, Booth's multiplication algorithm, instruction formats, parity encoding, RISC vs CISC architectures, ALU workings, instruction cycles, and addressing modes. Students must answer any 4 of the 6 long-form questions.
