Contained within the PSW are the two bit condition code, representing zero, positive, negative, overflow, and similar flags of other architectures' status registers. Conditional branch instructions test this encoded as a four bit value, with each bit representing a test of one of the four condition code values, 2 3 + 2 2 + 2 1 + 2 0. (Since IBM ...
A status register, flag register, or condition code register (CCR) is a collection of status flag bits for a processor.Examples of such registers include FLAGS register in the x86 architecture, flags in the program status word (PSW) register in the IBM System/360 architecture through z/Architecture, and the application program status register (APSR) in the ARM Cortex-A architecture.
The processor stores the PSW, with an interruption code inserted, into the old PSW location and then loads the PSW from the new PSW location. This generally replaces the instruction address, thereby effecting a branch, and (optionally) sets and/or resets other fields within the PSW, thereby effecting a mode change.
The Baillie–PSW primality test is a probabilistic or possibly deterministic primality testing algorithm that determines whether a number is composite or is a probable prime. It is named after Robert Baillie, Carl Pomerance , John Selfridge , and Samuel Wagstaff .

Read from program ROM, for table lookup. This uses TBHP and TBLP registers as a 16-bit pointer, fetches the word there, and stores the low byte in a specified location. The high 6–8 bits of the fetched word are stored in the TBLH register. A second form uses only TBLP and reads from the highest 256-byte page in ROM.
Personal support worker (PSW) is the title for a similar type of health worker in Canada. Personal support work is unique among health care professions in that the scope of a PSW's duties does not extend beyond what the client could do him/herself if the client were physically and cognitively able.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) [a] of Canada provided the framework of broad guidelines, conventions, rules and procedures of accounting.In early 2006, the AcSB decided to completely converge Canadian GAAP with international GAAP, i.e. International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as set by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), for most entities that must ...
