CSCI 3380 Computer Architecture
Spring 2009
Catalog Description:
Topics include arithmetic and logic unit, control unit, memory system, I/O system, instruction format,
instruction implementation, and program flow control.
Course Goal:
In this course, students will study the organizations, architectures, structures and functions of modern
digital computer systems. Covered topics include Digital Logic Circuits, Digital Components,
Data epresentation, egister Transfer and !icrooperations, "asic Computer Organization and
Design, !icroprogrammed Control, C#$, #ipeline and %ector #rocessing, !emory Organization
and !ultiprocessors.
$pon completion, students should master &asic 'nowledge re(uired to understand the architectures and
organizations of modern digital computer systems. )tudents should ac(uire the a&ilities and s'ills to
design, implement, and evaluate a computer*&ased system. )tudents should also o&tain an a&ility to use
current techni(ues, s'ills, and tools for designing and testing the digital systems that are used to &uild
computer systems.
