[edit] Introduction

The MIPS microprocessor paradigm was created in 1981 from work done by J. L. Hennessy at Stanford University. Since that time, the MIPS paradigm has been so influential, that nearly every modern-day processor family makes some use of the concepts derived from that original research. This book will discuss the MIPS architecture and (perhaps most importantly) MIPS assembly programming.

This book is in an early stage of development. Any contributions would be helpful and appreciated.
