At the end of this course, the students; 1) Write machine level programs using MIPS command set and debug programs which were written with this language. 2) Use SPIM simulator. 3) Know interrupts, ISA, and performance. 4) Know operation of single cycle data path and pipeline. 5) Draw pipelined data path and know Forwarding. 6) Know pipeline stalings and intel Asm. 7) Know SSE, MMX, and caches. 8) Describe structures and operation principles of virtual memories, parallel programs and OpenMP. 9) Describe Input/Output devices and shared memories. 10) Comprehend instruction level parallelism and to use it written programs. 11) Comprehend scheduling.
