An Engineering Perspective
Bottom-up approach
• From single bit to entire computer system
– Layer upon layer
• Cover enough details to see how everything fits together
Lecture slides
• At course webpage http://shay.ecn.purdue.edu/~ece495k
– Thispage will have key material – check it out today!
• Slides will also specify reading assignments
– You should closely keep up with the reading
assignments else the next lecture won’t make sense and
soon whole chapter and later chapters won’t make sense
Other materials for topics not covered in book
Circuits
Devices (Transistors)
Bits
We will learn about all the layers and how they fit together
