Overview

Modern X86 Assembly Language Programming shows the fundamentals of x86 assembly language programming. It focuses on the aspects of the x86 instruction set that are most relevant to application software development. The book's structure and sample code are designed to help the reader quickly understand x86 assembly language programming and the computational capabilities of the x86 platform. Book appendixes can be downloaded here: http://www.apress.com/9781484200650?gtmf=s

Major topics of the book include the following:

32-bit core architecture, data types, internal registers, memory addressing modes, and the basic instruction set

X87 core architecture, register stack, special purpose registers, floating-point encodings, and instruction set

MMX technology and instruction set

Streaming SIMD extensions (SSE) and Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) including internal registers, packed integer arithmetic, packed and scalar floating-point arithmetic, and associated instruction sets

64-bit core architecture, data types, internal registers, memory addressing modes, and the basic instruction set

64-bit extensions to SSE and AVX technologies

X86 assembly language optimization strategies and techniques
