Computer Organization II : CO-II Lectures and Homeworks
The schedule for the lectures is given below. Lectures are designed on the premise that you have studied the given chapters from the text book and slides before the lecture. (Slides are not so good self study material as they have been made for lectures - they will be used as basis for each lecture)
Lectures are in English whenever needed. They may be in Finnish if everyone present understands Finnish.
Homeworks will be given out approximately one week before they are due. Homeworks will be discussed (in English and/or in Finnish) in practice session. Homeworks will affect your grade, based on the number of homeworks you have (marked) done on those practice sessions that you are present. No presence - no points.
Homework answers will be available after practice session.
