Features: This book comprehensively and meticulously covers all aspects of assembly language programming. From microprocessor architecture and working mechanisms to instruction sets; from basic compiler and linker usage to advanced procedures, structures, and macros; from programming in pure assembly to hybrid interface programming with new compilers like VC++ and BC++; from 16-bit real-mode BIOS, DOS real-mode text and graphics programming to 32-bit protected-mode Windows programming; from disk fundamentals to Intel instruction encoding, floating-point operations, and related knowledge—all are explained in depth. This book is adopted as a fundamental computer textbook by multiple U.S. universities, including the University of Florida. The content is extensive yet deeply explained. It introduces assembly language solutions through engaging programming problems, and includes compiler installation and usage, as well as common programming references at the end of the book. The accompanying CD-ROM comes with a relatively newer free MASM6.11 compiler, helping readers overcome all obstacles in mastering assembly language. Additionally, it includes a rich and distinctive set of exercises and solutions, enabling readers to quickly grasp this widely recognized challenging language. If you are a beginner in assembly language, this book provides the best starting point. If you already have proficiency in the language, revisiting this book will also yield benefits. The book dedicates considerable to explaining computer architecture and fundamental principles, making it not only suitable as a textbook for assembly language in computer science programs at universities but also as a reference for computer architecture and principles.
