CSCI 201: Computer Systems Organization

The teaching staff has posted a new general resource.

I've posted solutions to practice exam 1 with explanations. Also, I've posted a sample problem on virtual memory with solutions.

To prepare for the exam, I suggest you do the following:

1. Review each lecture. Make sure you understand the concepts.
2. Do all of the practice problems. Make sure you understand the solutions.

Good luck!

These are the solutions to the second practice final. We went through these today in class.

I know a number of you were unable to attend today. Tomorrow, I am planning to post the solutions to the first practice final as well as some additional notes about the final. If you go through these carefully and follow the advice there, you should not be at any disadvantage for missing the make-up class today.

Very sorry for the last-minute notice, but my wife went into labor last night and so I will not be able to do the review session today. I have scheduled a make-up session for Wednesday at 11:00 in room 101. I will also be posting solutions to the practice problems on Wednesday.

Please *do* submit something for lab5 *today* even if you are not finished. You can resubmit up to three days late (assuming you have 3 late days left).

I've been asked to forward the following:

Dear Computer Science Students,

Our Department will be offering the following course during summer session:

Topics of General Computing Interest: Programming Challenges
CSCI-UA.0380-001
Course #: 6927
This class will help prepare students for the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest held at the end of October. This course is being taught by NYU's progteam coach from the past two years. More about progteam:<http://cs.nyu.edu/~icpc/>.

Course Description:
Programming Challenges studies algorithms from comprehension to implementation using programming contests. Topics covered will include parsing and formatting text, mathematics, data structures, graph algorithms, dynamic programming, and computational geometry. Evaluation is based on participation in programming contests inside and outside of class and class presentations of selected solutions.

CSCI-UA.0380-001
Course #: 6927
Topics of General Computing Interest: Programming Challenges
Sean McIntyre
Tuesdays and Thursdays
1:30PM-4:45PM
WWH 101
Session II: July 8 - August 17, 2013

This course will count towards the minor in Web Programming and Applications, but not the major in Computer Science. If you have questions, you can contact Romeo Kumar <Kumar@cs.nyu.edu> or
the instructor: Sean McIntyre <sm4266@cs.nyu.edu>.

The final exam will be May 20, 10am - 12pm, in room 101 WWH.

You *must* be able to take the exam at this time. No exceptions. If you cannot, you should withdraw from the class now.
