Project: Assembler, Linker, and Emulator for an Abstract Computer System

The goal of this project is to implement a toolchain (assembler and linker) and an emulator for an abstract computer system. The assembler is specific to the defined abstract computer system, while the linker is designed to be target-architecture independent.

Building

To build the project, use the provided Makefile:

make

This will create the following executables:

• asembler
• linker
• emulator

Running

The start.sh script demonstrates how to assemble, link, and emulate a sample program:

./start.sh

This script will:

1. Assemble the .s files in the tests/ directory (e.g., tests/main.s, tests/handler.s, tests/isr_terminal.s, tests/isr_timer.s) into object files (.o).
2. Link the object files into a program.hex file.
3. Run the program.hex file with the emulator.
