Course Name: C Programming and Assembly Language

Course abstract

Students who complete their bachelors degree (BE/ BTech) in computer science or electrical engineering do extensive course work in Microprocessors and then in C programming. However, what is missing in the current curriculum is to explicitly establish the link between the two. Specifically we look at how a C program is translated to assembly language and how it eventually gets executed on a microprocessor. Through, animations we show what happens in the stack, data and code segment, of the microprocessor when a C program is executed. Learning objectives of the course are: • Explain how function calls are translated to assembly • Explain how parameters are passed to a function • Explain what it means to say that local variables are stored on stack • Explain what it means to say local variables go out of scope after the function call • List out the instructions that need to be executed before entering a function and before exiting it • Explain the various calling conventions for C functions
