Question #2

Research in the net usual applications done in assembly language. Describe these applications briefly and cite the efficiency and effectiveness of these applications.

Include your reference. REFRAIN FROM COPYING AND PASTING THE ENTIRE TEXTS.

According to my research the usual application done in assembly language are the system's boot ROM (BIOS on IBM-compatible PC systems),debugging ,low-level languages, such as C,Programs using such facilities, such as the Linux Kernel,the system's portable code ,reverse engineering tools such as the Interactive Dissambler,demoscene,Amiga and theCommodore 64,3d graphics.

In computing, the BIOS or Basic Input/Output System manualor the incorrect punctuational variants.BIOS in part refers to the firmwarecode run by a PC when first powered on, which is a type of boot loader. The primary function of the BIOS is to identify and initialize system component hardware (such as the video display card, hard disk, and floppy disk) and some other hardware devices.Debugging is finding and reducing the number of bugs, or defects, in a computer program or a piece of electronic hardware .C is a general-purpose, cross-platform, block structured,imperative ,procedural computer programming language. Linux is a computer program kernel used by a family of Unix Like operating systems. Portability is a software codebase feature to be able to reuse the existing code instead of creating new code when moving software from an environment to another.Reverse engineering is the process of discovering the technological principles of a device, object or system through analysis of its structure, function and operation.The Interactive Disassembler, more commonly known as simply IDA, is a commercial disasemmbler widely used for reverse engeneering.Demoscene is a computer art subculture that specializes in producing demos, which are non-interactive audio-visual presentations that run in real time on a computer.The Amiga was most commercially successful as a home computer , although early Commodore advertisements attempted to place the Amiga into several different markets at the same time. Commodore 64 is an 8-bit home computer.3D computer graphics (in contrast to 2D computer grahics) are graphics that use a three dimensional representation of geometric data that is stored in the computer for the purposes of performing calculations and rendering 2D images.
