課程大綱
單元主題
內容綱要
Computer Abstraction and Technology
Introduction of computer and the measure of a computer
performance. Learning the continuing rapid change in speed and
capacity of hardware and some of the history of computer
development, as well as the sea change of the computer, i.e. the
switch from uniprocessors to multiprocessors.
Instructions: Language of the Computer
Built on the knowledge to derive the language of the computer and
discover the secret of computing: the hardware/software interface of
the stored-program computer by introducing the instruction set of a
real RISC.
Arithmetic for Computers
To unravel the mysteries of the instruction set, including
representation of numbers, arithmetic algorithms, hardware that
follows these algorithms, and their implications.
The Processor: Datapath and Control
The principles and techniques used in implementing a processer by
introducing a realistic example of a pipelined and nonpipelined
(simplified) RISC in detail. Understand the structure hazards, data
hazards, control hazards, the controls of exceptions and interrupts, as
well as the meanings of instruction-level parallelism and multi-issue
processors.
Exploiting Memory Hierarchy
The principles of memory hierarchies, focusing on the commonality
between virtual memory and caching.
Storage and Other I/O Topics
The dependability, reliability, and availability of the I/O systems.
Introduction of the disk storage, flash storage, buses, and RAIDs
(redundant arrays of inexpensive disks).
Multicores, Multiprocessors, and Clusters
Introduction of shared memory multiprocessors, clusters, messagepassing multiprocessors, and hardware multithreading.
