3.00 Credits
This course is used for the exploration of advanced aspects of computer science. Course content variable. Course may be repeated for credit with permission of the Department Chairperson. Prerequisites: CSC260; other prerequisites variable, depending on topic.
-
4.00 Credits
This course deals with the hardware and software aspects of multiprocessor systems (two or more processors in use simultaneously). The reasons for using such systems, including processor speed limitations and non-uniform capabilities of processors or computers, are examined. Basic hardware concepts such as machine models, parallel programs, networks, and performance and scalability are discussed. Relevant compiler and operating system concepts, programming models, and program development methodologies are introduced. Three lecture hours and one scheduled laboratory hour per week, plus additional laboratory work outside of class. Prerequisite: CSC260.
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces the techniques providing the run-time infrastructure supporting today's networked computer applications. Such applications require systems of multiple autonomous computers loosely coupled through an interconnection network, working together as a single virtual machine. The course addresses design issues and successful approaches for such distributed systems through abstract models, algorithms and case studies. Topics include: interprocess communication and remote invocations, distributed cryptographic security, distributed file systems, data replication and distributed transaction mechanisms. Three lecture hours and three hours of scheduled laboratory per week, plus programming work outside of class. Prerequisites: CSC280 and CSC315A with grades of C+ or higher.
-
1.00 Credits
The practicum sets up a typical environment for the development of a detailed proposal for a software-system or hardware system. project. The instructor will assist each student in choosing an appropriate project topic and in refining the proposal through all stages from initial outline to final formal specification. The completed proposal will serve as the contract for the CSC500 Directed Studies project. Course involves periodic meetings, group discussions, and individual conferences. A presentation of the completed proposal will be made to Computer Science faculty and students. The practicum is graded on a Pass/Fail basis and is taught on a Directed Study basis. Prerequisites: CSC266 plus permission of Department Chairperson.
-
3.00 Credits
A substantial project involving design and implementation is carried out on an individual or group basis under the supervision of a faculty member. The specification for the project must have been completed in the prerequisite course CSC498. A presentation of the completed project will be made to Computer Science faculty and students. Open only to majors in Computer and Information Studies. Prerequisites: CSC498. Other prerequisites will vary with the project, and are at the discretion of the Faculty supervisor for that project.

This course is an introduction to the basic economic concepts in micro and macroeconomics. Topics analyzed include: scarcity, supply and demand, costs of production, the price mechanism, market structures, national income, money and banking, the public sector, distribution of income and an introduction to alternative economic systems. The influence of political, social, legal, environmental, global, and technological issues are discussed in the process of presenting applications of economic theories. Three lecture hours per week. Not open to Economics majors or Business Administration majors. Division III elective for all other majors.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of economic aggregates. National income accounting, the role of consumption, savings, investment and government spending, the open economy (exports and imports), that is, our economy's interactions with the global economy, the functions of money and credits, the banking system and fiscal and monetary policy will be examined from a descriptive and analytical point of view. The economic objectives of growth, price, stability and full employment are reviewed and evaluated in the light of current issues. The influences of political, social, legal, environmental, global, and technological issues are discussed in the process of presenting applications of macroeconomic theories. Oral discussion, quantitative analysis, computer usage and Internet research are encouraged. Three lecture hours per week. Required of all Economics majors and Business Administration majors. Division III elective for all other majors.
-
3.00 Credits
This course encompasses the economics of the firm, price theory, analysis of demand, supply, elasticity, market structures, income distribution, international trade, foreign exchange, and current issues in microeconomics. The influences of political, social, legal, environmental, global, and technological issues are discussed in the process of presenting applications of microeconomic theories. Oral discussion, quantitative analysis, computer usage and Internet research are encouraged. Three lecture hours per week. Required of all Economics majors and Business Administration majors. Division III elective for all other majors.
-
3.00 Credits
