SISP Instruction Simulator[edit | edit source]

The simulator for the SIS Processor is written in C++. It uses the ncurses library for its user interface. Make sure you have the ncurses and ncurses development package installed.

Build instructions[edit | edit source]

It can be build using the GNU toolchain: 

  1. Download and unpack the archive to a directory on your machine.
  2. Run configure in that directory.
  3. Run make.
  4. Run make install.

The simulator is now ready to use.

Usage[edit | edit source]

To simulate a program simply run: 

 sisp_simul inputfile

The input file must contain a SISP program in binary format. To create such a file use our assembler.

Download[edit | edit source]

You can download the current version of the simulator here.

Version History[edit | edit source]

 v0.0.1 First public release
 v0.0.2 Correction in the disassemble routine of the ld and st instruction
        Corrected wrong execution behavior of the st instruction

Open Issues[edit | edit source]

  • The instructions INP and OUTP are currently not supported.
  • When changing the terminal dimensions while the program is running the layout will become wrong.
