HARBOUR.SPACE 

The module’s goal is to give basic knowledge of computer systems organisation and design. Understanding architecture and design process of microprocessors and other digital microelectronic devices is at the core of the module.

The first week’s materials covers Verilog hardware definition language (HDL), modern design flow of microelectronic devices. During the week, students learn basic components of modern computer systems, common essentials of synchronous circuits design and have hands-on experience with prototyping simple microelectronic control systems with the help of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs).

The third week is devoted to the basic principles of computer architecture and assembly languages. During this week students learn the fundamentals of MIPS assembly language, analyse and modify the structure of a simple MIPS-based microprocessor. All covered topics are supported with design or programming labs using Quartus software suite and Altera-Intel FPGAs.
