Concept explainers
For a function with prototype
long decoda2(long x, long y, long z);
GCC generates the following assembly code:
Parameters x, y, and z are passed in registers %rdi, %rsi, and %rdx. The code stores the return value in register %rax.
Write C code for decode2 that will have an effect equivalent to the assembly code shown.

Explanation of Solution
Given assembly code:
x in %rdi, y in %rsi and z in %rdx
decode2:
subq %rdx, %rsi
imulq %rsi, %rdi
movq %rsi, %rax
salq $63, %rax
sarq $63, %rax
xorq %rdi, %rax
ret
Load Effective Address:
- The load effective address instruction “leaq” is a variant of “movq” instruction.
- The instruction form reads memory to a register, but memory is not been referenced at all.
- The first operand of instruction is a memory reference; the effective address is been copied to destination.
- The pointers could be generated for later references of memory.
- The common arithmetic operations could be described compactly using this instruction.
- The operand in destination should be a register.
Data movement instructions:
- The different instructions are been grouped as “instruction classes”.
- The instructions in a class performs same operation but with different sizes of operand.
- The “Mov” class denotes data movement instructions that copy data from a source location to a destination.
- The class has 4 instructions that includes:
- movb:
- It copies data from a source location to a destination.
- It denotes an instruction that operates on 1 byte data size.
- movw:
- It copies data from a source location to a destination.
- It denotes an instruction that operates on 2 bytes data size.
- movl:
- It copies data from a source location to a destination.
- It denotes an instruction that operates on 4 bytes data size.
- movq:
- It copies data from a source location to a destination.
- It denotes an instruction that operates on 8 bytes data size.
- movb:
Comparison Instruction:
- The “CMP” instruction sets condition code according to differences of their two operands.
- The working pattern is same as “SUB” instruction but it sets condition code without updating destinations.
- The zero flag is been set if two operands are equal.
- The ordering relations between operands could be determined using other flags.
- The “cmpl” instruction compares values that are double word.
Unary and Binary Operations:
- The details of unary operations includes:
- The single operand functions as both source as well as destination.
- It can either be a memory location or a register.
- The instruction “incq” causes 8 byte element on stack top to be incremented.
- The instruction “decq” causes 8 byte element on stack top to be decremented.
- The details of binary operations includes:
- The first operand denotes the source.
- The second operand works as both source as well as destination.
- The first operand can either be an immediate value, memory location or register.
- The second operand can either be a register or a memory location.
Corresponding C code:
// Define method decode
long decode(long x, long y, long z)
{
// Declare variable
long tmp = y - z;
//Return
return (tmp * x)^(tmp << 63 >> 63);
}
Explanation:
- The register “%rdi” has value for “x”, register “%rsi” has value for “y” and register “%rdx” has value for “z”.
- The details of assembly code is shown below:
- The instruction “subq %rdx, %rsi” performs operation “y - z” and stores result in register “%rsi”.
- The statement “long tmp = y - z” corresponds to C code.
- The instruction “imulq %rsi, %rdi” multiplies result of operation with “x” and stores result in register “%rdi”.
- The statement “(tmp * x)” corresponds to C code.
- The instruction “movq %rsi, %rax” moves value in register “%rsi” to register “%rax”.
- The instruction “salq $63, %rax” performs left shift on value in register “%rax”.
- The statement “tmp << 63” corresponds to C code.
- The instruction “sarq $63, %rax” performs right shift on value in register “%rax”.
- The statement “tmp << 63 >> 63” corresponds to C code.
- The instruction “xorq %rdi, %rax” performs “XOR” operation on values in registers “%rax” and “%rdi”.
- The statement “return (tmp * x)^(tmp << 63 >> 63)” corresponds to C statement.
- The instruction “subq %rdx, %rsi” performs operation “y - z” and stores result in register “%rsi”.

- Please answer the homework scenario below and make a JAVA OOP code. You have been hired by GMU to create and manage their course registration portal. Your first task is to develop a program that will create and track different courses in the portal. Each course has the following properties: • a course number ex. IT 106, IT 206, • A course description, ex. Intro to Programming • Total credit hour ex. 3.0, and • current enrollment ex. 30 Each course must have at least a course number and credit hours. The maximum enrollment for each course is 40 students. The current enrollment should be no greater than the maximum enrollment. A course can have a maximum of 4 credit hour. The DDC should calculate the number of seats remaining for the course. Design an object-oriented solution to create a data definition class for the course object. The course class must define all the constructors, mutators with proper validation, accessors, and special purpose methods.

Reflection Questions to Consider: What are the key ethical dilemmas presented in the case? How does AI challenge traditional medical ethics principles such as autonomy, beneficence, and confidentiality? In what ways can responsible innovation help address moral overload in healthcare decision-making?
