Advanced Computer Architecture Course Overview - 5MD00 / 5Z033

This course, 5MD00 / 5Z033, focuses on advanced concepts in computer architecture, including instruction-level parallelism (ILP), out-of-order execution, and advanced memory hierarchies. Students will explore multi-processor architectures, threading, and synchronization techniques while engaging with recent scholarly articles. Lab assignments feature practical work on a miniMIPS processor and multi-processor systems. The course structure includes weekly classes and student-led research, culminating in an examination. Gain insights into the future trajectory of computing!
