課程概述

Computer architecture has evolved — from a world of mainframes, minicomputers, and microprocessors, to a world dominated by microprocessors, and now into a world where microprocessors themselves are encompassing all the complexity of mainframe computers.
 

課程目標
This course focuses on advanced computer architecture design such as deep pipelining, techniques to exploit instruction level parallelism and thread level parallelism, and memory hierarchy management.
Students will acquire the skills of evaluating the performance of alternative design choices in system design.
