アーキテクチャ学 / Computer Architecture

単位数: 2. 担当教員: 小林 広明, 佐藤 雅之. 開講年度: 2024. 開講言語: English.

授業の目的・概要及び達成方法等(Ｅ）

The term "computer architecture" means the concept of designing computers and is also its philosophy. This course begins with the basic principles of computers, and then talks about instruction-level parallel processing, vector processing, parallel computing systems, and their control mechanisms. Supercomputing techniques such as vector systems and accelerators are also reviewed.

This class will be given via Google classroom in an on-line fashion ((class code: bae3pof )
