mul is used for unsigned multiplication whereas imul is used for signed multiplication. Algorithm for both are same, which is as follows:

when operand is a byte:

AX = AL * operand.when operand is a word:

(DX AX) = AX * operand.

But, the difference is that mul instruction multiplies only unsigned numbers whereas imul instruction does the same for signed numbers.
