The document provides details about Assignment 2 for the course CS 2523: Computer Organization and Assembly Language (3) being offered in Spring 2021. The assignment focuses on basics of computer organization and assembly language, including data representation. It contains 5 tasks - the first asks students to elaborate on the 5 sub-operations of the control unit in an instruction cycle. The second deals with number systems and conversions, asking students to perform operations and state the values of carry and overflow flags, as well as convert between decimal, binary and floating point representations. It also asks students to calculate the number of bytes used by a variable based on the provided addresses.
