Problem #1: Logic Gates and Boolean Algebra

• What is the boolean equation for the output Y of the circuit shown below?

Problem #2: Assembly Language

• Write an assembly language program that contains a loop and at least one variable called sum. Before the loop starts the variable sum contains 0. Once the loop ends the variable sum contains the sum of all the multiples of 3 between 0 and 30. In other words, your program computes 0 + 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15 + 18 + 21 + 24 + 27 + 30 and stores the result in the variable sum.

Problem #4: Von Neumann's Bottleneck
