• to trace execution of a recursive and nonrecursive solutions
• get students to program in assembly,
• learn how to use gdb
• trace sliding windows in the SPARC

15 points total.

• 8 Points
  Would like to see annotations where things happen, e.g., calls and returns. They should know that the Frame Pointer is the old Stack Pointer.
• 2 Points
  They should recognize the change in windows, i.e., a new register set, maybe changes in wim/cwp.
• 2 Points
  They should use out registers and in registers to pass parameters and return results.
• 1 Point
  A global register is fine for the count of the total number of calls.
• 2 Points
  They should allocate appropriate space on the Stack for each call.
• Looking for reasonable implementations and reasonable comments.

What are you to do?

Read the projects given to you and grade them using 15 points as total.
There is no specific answers, just a reasonable implementation and trace.
