Addressing mode: Measurement, Obsolete addressing modes & Other addressing modes for code or data

Addressing modes are an aspect of the instruction set architecture in most central processing unit (CPU) designs. Addressing modes define how the machine language instructions in that architecture identify the operand(s) of each instruction. An addressing mode specifies how to calculate the effective memory address of an operand by using information held…
