Parameter passing methods, type checking, file management, exception handling, templates, recursion and recursive data types. Prerequisites: All required second year courses.
COE 608 Computer: Computer Organization and Architecture Lect: 3 hrs./Lab: 2 hrs. Topics include: Basic architecture of modern computers, interaction between computer hardware and software at various levels, and performance evaluation and metrics. Instruction set design. Computer Arithmetic. Data path and control unit design for RISC and CISC Processor. The laboratory work includes the design and implementation of 16 bit RISC CPU using Altera Max+Plus II software and VHDL. Prerequisites: All required second year courses.
COE 618 Computer: Object Oriented Eng Lect: 3 hrs./Lab: 2 hrs. Analysis & Design. This course deals with the analysis and design of complex engineering systems. In particular, students will be asked to create requirement specifications prior to the design and implementation of such engineering systems. Case studies from hardware and software development projects will be used to illustrate the design process. Development of expertise in analyzing, designing, implementing, and testing industrial-quality, reusable software and hardware systems. Project work include practice with an object-oriented programming language, and high-level object/library creation using HDL. Prerequisites: All required second year courses.
COE 708 Computer: Real-Time Operating Systems Lect: 3 hrs./Lab: 2 hrs. Topics include: Operating systems basic concepts. Hardware and software features required for real time vs. traditional operating systems. Process management; scheduling, interprocess communication and synchronization, process starvation, deadlocks. Memory management, virtual memory, files systems, real-time operating system scheduling algorithms. The major lab project will involve developing operating system modules.
