  2. Instruction set architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_set_architecture

    Minimal instruction set computers (MISC) are commonly a form of stack machine, where there are few separate instructions (8–32), so that multiple instructions can be fit into a single machine word. These types of cores often take little silicon to implement, so they can be easily realized in an FPGA or in a multi-core form.

  3. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    A binary code represents text, computer processor instructions, or any other data using a two-symbol system. The two-symbol system used is often "0" and "1" from the binary number system. The binary code assigns a pattern of binary digits, also known as bits, to each character, instruction, etc.

  4. Machine code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_code

    In computer programming, machine code is computer code consisting of machine language instructions, which are used to control a computer's central processing unit (CPU). For conventional binary computers , machine code is the binary representation of a computer program which is actually read and interpreted by the computer.

  5. Computer architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_architecture

    The first documented computer architecture was in the correspondence between Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace, describing the analytical engine.While building the computer Z1 in 1936, Konrad Zuse described in two patent applications for his future projects that machine instructions could be stored in the same storage used for data, i.e., the stored-program concept.

  6. x86 instruction listings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_instruction_listings

    The instructions are usually part of an executable program, often stored as a computer file and executed on the processor. The x86 instruction set has been extended several times, introducing wider registers and datatypes as well as new functionality.

  7. Translator (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translator_(computing)

    A translator or programming language processor is a computer program that converts the programming instructions written in human convenient form into machine language codes that the computers understand and process.

  8. Interpreter (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpreter_(computing)

    In computer science, an interpreter is a computer program that directly executes instructions written in a programming or scripting language, without requiring them previously to have been compiled into a machine language program. An interpreter generally uses one of the following strategies for program execution:

  9. Microprocessor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microprocessor

    The IC is capable of interpreting and executing program instructions and performing arithmetic operations. [1] The microprocessor is a multipurpose, clock-driven, register-based, digital integrated circuit that accepts binary data as input, processes it according to instructions stored in its memory, and provides results (also in binary form ...
