Curriculum Updates in Banner (FA19/SP20)


Good afternoon.

The following courses and programs have recently been updated in Banner according to approved Collegewide Curriculum Committee proposals.

Fall 2019 Effective Term

New Course
CMSC 216 – INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER SYSTEMS
Conveys the fundamental concepts that enable programs to execute on real hardware. These include how the operating system virtualizes the hardware to provide services and abstractions to allow a user program to effectively use available resources. The course also addresses how different programming constructs work at a low level. The basic abstraction of a program running as one or more threads of control in a single flat address space (a UNIX process), and emphasizing it as the model for understanding how a program works, from both the user program and hardware perspective (with the operating system in between), is a theme throughout the course.   Four semester hours.   Prerequisites:  C or better in CMSC 204 and MATH 182.  Pre- or Corequisite:  CMSC 207.
