Course description and outline
Book: Computer Systems, J. Stanley Warford, Jones and Bartlett, Second Edition 2002
Course objectives : to provide an introduction to computer architecture and assembly language programming. [Also to introduce the C programming language.] See next page for a course outline.
Requirements: (1) homework assignments and exams,
(2) programming projects (using the PEP/7 programming environment),
(3) final examination.
All exams (including the final) will be open-book, open-notes.
Evaluation of student work:
In order to achieve a passing grade, a student must submit work which is entirely his/her own. Accordingly those who cheat on exams or who submit programs which are copied will incur a grade of F.
Programs, exams and homework will be given numeric scores out of 100. The final letter grade will be based on a formula something like:
.4 * weighted program average (weight given to individual programs will vary)
+ .25 * final
+ .35 * average quizzes/homework
(the actual formula will depend on the number of assignments made). Plus-minus grading will be used.
