In this book, we are talking about the processor in its two main modes: protected mode and 64-bit, which is also called long mode ("long mode"). Also, in addition to the statement of principles and mechanisms of the processor in protected and 64-bit mode, it will be about programming in assembly language in the operating systems Windows, both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. We consider not only the development of the common applications of Windows, but the driver development in assembler. In writing the book has received considerable attention is the practical component, ie. E. The presentation of material is only in the case, and only what you need to know any system and low-level programmer. The last section of the book is devoted to the principles of operation of multiprocessor systems, as well as working with the advanced programmable interrupt controller (APIC). The CD that accompanies the book are full source code examples in the book, as well as additional programs and materials. The publication is intended for system and low-level programmers, as well as for students and teachers of technical specialties of higher and secondary special educational institutions.
