Description of CENG 252 COMPUTER ORGANIZATION| Course Name: | COMPUTER ORGANIZATION | | Course Code: | CENG 252 | | Type of Course: | Undefined | | Level of Course: | Undergraduate (First Cycle) | | Year of Study: | 2 | | Semester/Trimester: | Spring | | ECTS Credits: | 7 | | FU Credits: | 3 | | Name(s) of Lecturer(s): | - | | Course Coordinator: | - | | Objectives of the Course: | This course introduces the essentials of computer organization and architecture. It focuses on the function and design of the various components necessary to process information digitally. Topics include instruction processing, instruction set, instruction format and addressing, hardwired vs micro-programmed control, memory interfacing, memory hierarchy, cache and virtual memory, input-output and storage systems. This is a three credit hour course that meets twice a week. | | Course Description: | Understanding of the inner-workings of modern computer systems and tradeoffs present at the hardware-software interface: Instruction set design and addressing modes, register transfer, internal CPU bus structure, ALU (microprogramming and hardwired control), computer arithmetic, memory system, input-output system and survey of real computers and microprocessors.
