COURSE DESCRIPTION

NAME OF INSTITUTION	Lahore Garrison University
PROGRAM (S) TO BE EVALUATED	Computer Science , Spring 2023

Course Description : Modern computer technology requires professionals of every computing specialty to understand both hardware (HW) and software (SW). The interaction between HW and SW also offers a framework for understanding the fundamentals of computing. In this course students will study topics such as Instruction Set Architecture, Basic Assembly Instructions, Addressing Modes, Computer Performance evaluation, Floating Point Data, Data Path Design for Single Cycle and Multiple Cycle Computers, Pipelined Data Path Basics, Hazards in Pipelining, Memory hierarchy design, storage and I/O. The Lab will have focus on GUI based Turbo Assembly Level Programming and some HW experiments.
