To provide a working knowledge of the hardware and
architecture of a computer system, particularly focusing on aspects such as
memory hierarchy, cache coherence and multi-threaded hardware support that
affect a full understanding of how to write multi-threaded software. This is a
practical course, grounded in a theoretical understanding of concurrency and
the problems and benefits it brings. We will use multi-threaded Java and
provide an understanding of how to apply appropriate concurrency control
primitives where there is simultaneous access to shared resources.

This course reviews common applications of wireless communication and introduces key terminology that facilitates the discussion of wireless communication in practice. Several topics are addressed, including broadcast radio and broadcast television, cellular communication, wireless local area networks, personal area networks, satellite networks, ad hoc networks, sensor networks, and finally underwater communication. The key concepts and the connections to digital communication are highlighted along the way. For a senior-level undergraduate course, I would cover the material from the entire book. For a graduate course, I would cover the entire book with an additional implementation or research project.
