Computer Architecture for Everybody
This web site and all the tools are under construction.
This course will cover digitial electronics, how electronics can be used for computation, what machine language is, and what assembly language is, and how compiled languages like C work.
Some Sample Content
As the course is developed, you can see some of the sample content in various stages of completion:
- DC Logic Builder
- Mistic VLSI Layout Tool (inspried by the Magic VLSI Layout Tool)
- Digital Logic Builder
- A CDC8512 Microprocessor Emulator Prototype (A UI Mockup - not working)
- CDC8512 Instruction Set Documentation
- A YouTube Playlist of the Development of the Course Content (Please like and subscribe)
- Draft lecture on the CDC8512 microprocessor CDC8512 Microprocessor.
- You also can view the course that is a pre-requisite for this course C Programming Everybody
The course is not developed in a linear order. These courses take a long time to develop. I tend to work on thigs that I think will be most difficult first. Most of the early work is to build and test autograders.
