Introduction to Computer System Education and Research

This course, taught by Prof. Taeweon Suh and Dr. Jonghye Kim at Korea University, offers a comprehensive overview of digital design and computer architecture. Students will learn fundamental concepts, including digital design principles, number systems, combinational and sequential logic, and the architecture of modern CPU systems. The required textbook is "Digital Design and Computer Architecture" by Harris and Harris (2007). The aim is to understand how computers work and to explore ways to enhance their performance, culminating in practical assignments using simulation software.
