Lecture "Computer Architecture II"
Freelance lecturer:
Prof. Dr. Wolfgang E. Nagel
Contact person:
Dr. Robert Schöne
Course description:
The aim of the course is to impart advanced knowledge of computer architecture. It follows on from the course Computer Architecture I, in which some important components of computer architecture have already been dealt with. The course Computer Architecture II focuses in particular on innovative computer architecture principles that allow performance increases by separating the parallel execution of system components. Further sub-areas are methods of description, performance evaluation and fault tolerance of such architectures. Following the development trend, the course concludes with an outlook on distributed parallel processing in the context of cluster computing.
