Language of the Computer

Language is EVERYTHING! Eventhough we couldn't speak but we still can communicate by using body language. So, computer also has it own language. It is called as MIPS. Do you know what MIPS stand for?? MIPS or Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipeline Stages is a reduced instruction set computer ( RISC ) instruction set architecture.

Figure : MIPS R2000 Architecture

The simulator of MIPS is called SPIM. 

The function of SPIM is :

1) Read MIPS assembly language file and translate to machine language.

2) Execute the machine language instructions.

3) Shows content of registers and memory.

4) Works as a debugger.

5) Provides basic OS-like services.
