Basic computer organization including the von Neumann architecture, the instruction cycle, parts of a CPU (central processing unit), pipelining, memory hierarchy, and interrupt handling. Representation of numerical and non-numerical data. Translation to assembly code from high-level constructs such as if statements, loops, and function calls.
This is an IN-PERSON SECTION with on-campus meetings! For more information, please visit the instructor's website.
This section runs for the whole semester. It is NOT self-paced. It requires the use of Canvas and an internet-enabled device.
