    Course Rationale

    The computer lies at the heart of computing. Without it most of the computing today would be a branch of theoretical mathematics. To be a professional in any field of computing today, one should not regard the computer as just a black box that executes programs by magic. All students of computing should acquire some understanding and appreciation of a computer system’s functional components, their characteristics, their performance, and their interactions. This course can help the students in this regard.

    Course Objective

    The objective is to enable the students to understand computer architecture in order to structure a program so that it runs more effectively on a real machine. Also, to provide an insight in selecting a system to use and to make them able to understand the trade-off among various components such as CPU clock speed vs memory size.
