  • CSC 252: Computer Organization

    4.00 Credits
    University of Rochester

    Introduction to computer architecture and the layering of hardware/software systems. Topics include instruction set design; logical building blocks; computer arithmetic; processor organization; the memory hierarchy (registers, caches, main memory, and secondary storage); I/O—buses, devices, and interrupts; microcode and assembly language; virtual machines; the roles of the assembler, linker, compiler, and operating system; technological trends and the future of computing hardware. Several programming assignments required.

  • CSC 255: Adv Programming Systems

    4.00 Credits
    University of Rochester

    With the increasing diversity and complexity of computers and their applications, the development of efficient, reliable software has become increasingly dependent on automatic support from compilers & other program analysis and translation tools. This course covers principal topics in understanding and transforming programs at the assembly, function, and program levels. Specific techniques for imperative languages include data flow, dependence, and inter-procedural analyses; resource allocation; and program transformation for locality and parallelism. The course will also touch on theoretical issues in program semantics for higher order languages. Course projects include a program analyzer and optimizer for a subset of the C programming language. Meets jointly with CSC 455, a graduate-level course that requires additional readings and assignments.

  • CSC 291: Machines & Consciousness

    4.00 Credits
    University of Rochester

    This course explores the possibility of consciousness in machines, both in the sense of perceptual awareness and self-awareness. Readings are from the AI literature as well as from philosophy and cognitive science. The course will begin with some general philosophical and cognitive science readings, and then shift emphasis to representational and computational aspects. Homework will include written answers to questions, essays, and -- for 291 students only -- a project that involves Lisp programming. The course will be suitable for writing credit. (4 hours, Spring)
