4.00 Credits
The course introduces the internal operation of the computer and provides an understanding of how the computer, at a low level, carries out the task of processing data. It deals with the machine language as determined by the architecture, addressing techniques, assembly languages, assembler construction, linkers, loaders and related operating system software and provides an introduction to the role of the operating system and the compiler, as well as interfacing to peripheral devices. Prerequisite: CS 175.
-
3.00 Credits
The subject introduces main operating system concepts and explains the role of major operating system components. In particular, the subject involves an overview of computer system structures, describes main process and storage management issues, and stresses the importance of protection and security. It covers processes, their creation, and mechanisms for intercommunication. Scheduling algorithms and their applications in allocating processors and ordering data transfers are explained. Mechanisms and policies for memory management are explored, as are approaches for organizing file storage. Problems specific to concurrent programs are reviewed. Prerequisite: CS 185.
-
4.00 Credits
This subject will examine Internet protocols, technologies and performance issues. Topics will include: TCP/IP, IP Addressing, Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Frame Relay, Congestion Control/Flow Control. Other topics to be covered include theoretical concurrency models used for specification and simulation, network addressing, contemporary architectures (both hardware and software) and mechanism to implement distributed processes. Real-world programming examples from the Unix environment will be presented. Prerequisite: CS 185.
-
4.00 Credits
The aim of the subject is to provide students with an introduction to information systems. A study of the analysis and design of computer information systems is undertaken. The course includes developing a study project using CASE tools. In addition to individual learning, students will be introduced to collaborative analysis and design activities undertaken in small groups.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
This course covers special topics of current interest.
-
3.00 Credits
This course offers an introduction to computer networks and computer communications: architecture and protocols, Internet and intranet; design of protocols for error recovery, routing and congestion control; satellite networks, local area networks and distributed systems. Emphasis will be placed on group work with students required to participate in problem solving communications tasks. Web based activities will be an essential element in the conduct of this subject. Prerequisite: CS 185.
-
4.00 Credits
This subject provides (i) an introduction to the Java language and some of its standard class libraries, (ii) experience with object-oriented design and implementation techniques, (iii) an understanding of the Internet and its importance to modern software systems. Topics will include: the Java language, subsets of Java class libraries (windowing, graphics, networking, threads), object-oriented design and implementation, Internet issues, basis of TCP/IP protocols, Web technologies, HTML and Java, CGI programming, introduction to security issues. Prerequisite: CS 175.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a comparison of the characteristic of programming language paradigms. Data types, storage, binding, abstraction, and encapsulation are studied as a prelude to examining imperative, object-oriented, and functional programming paradigms. Concurrent and logic programming principles are also considered. Topics also include structured programming techniques, fundamentals of the CORBA/COBOL, control break processing, data validation, table processing, sequential file processing. Prerequisite: CS 185.
-
4.00 Credits
This subject investigates the process of relational, hierarchical and network database design starting from conceptual database design, through logical database design up to and including physical database design, tuning of database applications and administration. The topics include conceptual database design based on Object Modeling Technique/Unified Modeling Language, methodologies for conceptual design, view integration, logical database design, physical database design, storage allocation, indexing and clustering in relational databases, query processing and optimization techniques, transaction management, and database recovery techniques. Prerequisite: CS 185.
-
3.00 Credits
Software Development is a difficult and challenging task. Apart from the most trivial of problems, the software development process is generally a collaborative rather than an individual effort. To manage the development of complex software artifacts, various principles and practices of software engineering have been formulated. Acquainting students with the principles and practices of managing the software development process is the primary aim of this subject. Prerequisite: CS 185.
