Topic outline
-
Course Synopsis
This course discusses the component, structure and function of a computer. It expose student with the architecture and organization of a computer. This subject covers on the numbering system and the representation of data, the internal and external computer communication through system buses and Input and Output, computer storage, internal architecture of Central Processing Unit, Logic Gates and Boolean Algebra. Assembly languages are expose to student for better understanding of the computer structure and component as a whole.
Course Outcomes
By the end of semester, students should be able to: CO1 Classify and illustrate the internal and external components of a computer structure and its functionality which include CPU, buses, memory and I/O. Explain how the components of a computer architecture and organization contribute to the computer performance CO2 Display and calculate the different machine data level representation, arithmetic and write a assembly language code to show computer inner working behaviour C03 Demonstrate team working element by solving problems of computer architecture and organization in a groups.
