Course objectives

At the end of the course student should be able to understand and explain a general technical principles about computer systems operation.

Learning outcomes

At the end of this course the student will be able to understand basic principles of digital computers; understand the design of numerical systems used in computer technology and convert numbers between systems; will understand the principles of storing information, coding and storing texts. The student will understand the principles of the elementary processor and its programming at the lowest level. Student general principles compare with a specific implementation on Intel x86 processors and will be able to understand the implemented technologies of paging, caching and some others.
