the ?. Started in 1997, it consists of a collection of kernels organized into suites that
address different portions of the embedded industry.
Instruction set - correct answer the vocabulary of commands understood by a given
architecture.
Stored-program concept - correct answer the idea that instructions and data of many
types can be stored in memory as numbers and thus be easy to change, leading to the
stored-program computer.
Comments - correct answer the words to the right of the double slashes (//) on each

where a single bit is used to represent the sign, and the remaining bits represent the the
magnitude.
Two's complement - correct answer a signed number representation where a leading 0
indicates a positive number and a leading 1 indicates a negative number. The
complement of a value is obtained by complementing each bit (0 → 1 or 1 → 0), and
then adding one to the result.
Sign extension - correct answer the function of a signed load is to copy the sign
repeatedly to fill the rest of the register, known as a ?.
