  • CSC 255: Assembler Language Programming

    3.00 Credits
    Rocky Mountain College

    Spring semester. 3 semester hours. This course studies the representation of data and programs in the fundamental language of the computer. Students will learn how numeric and non-numeric data are represented in the processor and memory of modern computers and be led to understand how the basic operations familiar in high-level languages are implemented by the instructions executed by the processor. Successful programming in assembler language requires great attention to detail. Prerequisite: CSC131 or CSC143. It is strongly recommended that CSC354 be taken concurrently with CSC255.

  • CSC 333: Network Programming

    3.00 Credits
    Rocky Mountain College

    On demand.. 3 semester hours. Network Programming picks up where CSC330 leaves off. The goal of the course is to provide students with an in-depth look at network application programming and the techniques and tools that are used therein. The student is assumed to have a fundamental knowledge of the protocol layering model of networking as well as an understanding of the network, transport and application layers of the Internet protocol stack. The material for the course focuses on Java's streams and IP-based protocols. The discussion is extended to include topics such as RMI, servlets, and other components from the Java API. Prerequisites: CSC330.

  • CSC 345: Advanced Algorithms and Parallel Processing

    3.00 Credits
    Rocky Mountain College

    Annually. 3 semester hours. Most programming problems encountered by undergraduate computer science students are solvable using straightforward approaches. There are a number of important and challenging problems whose efficient solutions demand more sophisticated techniques. This course presents an organized study of major algorithmic strategies (Divide and Conquer, Dynamic Programming, Backtracking, Greedy, Branch and Bound) and introduces students to advanced topics including computability, fixed-point algorithms, and NP-complete problems. Algorithms for parallel processing are explored through the use of a Beowulf processor cluster as a target platform for programming exercises. Prerequisites: CSC251, CSC354, and senior standing.
