Computer Organization & Architecture
This course covers various aspects of internal working of a computer system. This course is broadly divided into five modules viz. Introduction, processor design, arithmetic and logic design, Memory systems and Input/ Output organization. This course talks about how our modern day computer works and how we are achieving improvements in the design aspects
