The x86 instruction set used in today's top-tier Intel and AMD processors is a direct evolution of the 8086. Understanding the 8086 registers ( AX , BX , CX , DX , SI , DI , SP , BP ) provides an immediate mental model for modern assembly language. Microprocessors And Interfacing Douglas V Hall 3rd Edition
