               Theory: This project has the goal of simulating the DLX processor (which is a didactic processor made by AMD - Advanced Micro - Devices). The simulation consists in: the user builds and supplies a text file which contains correct instructions (using the assembler language of the processor). The program will read the file (the user may choose to execute this file as a bloc (all the instructions together) or step by step) and execute an graphic applet which will show "what is happening inside the processor" concerning the physical resources, during the run of the file (the text file containing the instructions) and a non-graphic program which will run effectively the file and will finally show all the resources of the processor with everything they contain.

               For more detailes about the DLX processor please visit the documents provided by the Numeric Computers Laboratory. These documents are found at: www.csit-sun.pub.ro, but you can open the Romanian translations of the sections concerning the DLX) processor clicking here for course 1 and here for course 3.
               Among the other requests, the processor must have some interrupts when needed. More information you can find clicking here.
