Institution:

Xavier University of Louisiana

Subject:

Description:

- Usually offered in the fall semesters, required for students majoring in computer science. The course will cover the fundamental internal workings of a computer and include lab exercised and simulations. The course begins at the bit (i.e., binary digit) level, works through the mechanisms of a single processor (both in single- and multi-cycle clock implementations), and escalates to communication channels (i.e., bus systems) used by multiprocessor clusters and networks. A hands-on practice applying course concepts will reinforce and extend students' understanding of the material. Prerequisites: C or above in CPSC 1710 ( 3).
