Ec2303 Computer Architecture and Organization

This document outlines the course objectives and units of study for a computer architecture and organization course. The course aims to discuss the basic structure of digital computers and study the organization of the control unit, arithmetic logic unit, memory unit, and input/output unit. It will provide a thorough understanding of computer structure and operation, including details of arithmetic operations, control types and pipelining. The course will also cover memory systems like caches and virtual memory, as well as communication methods and I/O interfaces. The course is divided into 5 units covering topics like data representation, arithmetic, control design, memory organization, and system organization.
