Fourth Module: Computer Systems

In this trimester, I am taking a level 2 module known as Computer Systems. This module is about understanding computer hardware organization and the way application programs are executed at machine level. We deal with DLX, which is a RISC(Reduced Instruction Set Computing). The DLX has a simple 32-bit load/store architecture. The coding is mainly done using the assembly language. The lecturer for this module is Dr. Lye Kong Wei, who graduated with a phD in Computer Engineering in Carnegie Mellon University, USA. From his lessons, we can feel his passion in this subject and he is very comfortable in sharing his knowledge along the way. After completion of this module, I have cleared all my level 1 and 2 modules. Next, I will be working on my level 3 modules! Looking forward to much more interesting ideas in Computer Science!

There are no text for this module as the required text was written by a professor from University of Adelaide. He is Dr. David Knight.
