Eligibility:
For single subject courses within Chalmers programmes the same eligibility requirements apply, as to the programme(s) that the course is part of.
Course specific prerequisites
EDA111 Computer Architecture is recommended.
Aim
To provide a perspective on the design process of computer systems tailored for challenging application requirements.
Goal
After completion of this course, the student has gained insights into different methods
that support computer designers in the aim of designing competitive computer systems
regarding both functionality and performance properties. Further, the student will also
get a solid perspective on the main research issues in at least the following central
areas:
- Computer architecture
- Real-time systems
- Dependable and fault-tolerant computer systems
Content
Course is organised in three parts.
(A) an introductory part giving an overview of the area from a scientific perspective;
(B) an application oriented part giving an overview of the area from an industrial perspective and
(C) a deepening part, where each student goes deeper into an assigned topic and thereafter gives an oral presentation for the other students.
Special attention is given to the following areas:
- analysis of performance, reliability and function
- trends in technology and applications
- design principles for achieving exceptional requirements on performance, real time and reliability.
Organisation
Series of seminars given by either guest speakers or students.
Literature
Scientific papers.
Examination
Attendance on 10 out of 14 seminars and completed reporting and presentation of assignment.
