Content of lectures: 1. Introduction- pipelines, their properties and utilization in processors 2. RISC processors - structure and stages 3. RISC processors - function, conflicts in the pipeline, branch prediction 4. CACHE memory - integration in the computer, strategy of blocks swapping 5. ARM core - its blocks and function 6. CORTEX core - its blocks and function 7. Peripheral circuits of the 32-bit computers 8. Special architectures of computers - superscalar, multiprocessor, multithreading 9. Real-time operating systems - preemptive and cooperative, tasks and their sequencing 10. Internal communication in the computer - system controller, buses, external peripherals 11. Diagnostics of the computer - diagnostics of the data and program memory, processor, peripherals 12. Requirements on the computer in signals processing - algorithms complexity and their structure Contents of labs: Most part of the laboratory experiments and especially the individual projects are devoted to programming. The individual projects are assigned in the beginning of the semester. Four weeks are reserved for intensive consultations.
