A study of low-level operation of computer systems. Participating in hands-on activities, students investigate how computers process instructions as information is encoded, stored, and executed in the machine’s physical structure. In addition to learning how to program in assembly and machine languages, students investigate the design and logical operation of processors and the mathematics of machine computation. During the weekly laboratory session students use state-of-the-art technology to complete projects, reporting on their results in both written reports and oral presentations. Prerequisite: CMPSC 111.
