Computer System Engineering As taught in: Spring 2009 Network of three domains. See Lecture 9 in theLecture Notes section for an introduction to networks. Instructors: Prof. Robert Morris Prof. Samuel Madden MIT Course Number: 6.033 Level: Undergraduate Course Description This course covers topics on the engineering of computer software and hardware systems: techniques for controlling complexity; strong modularity using client-server design, virtual memory, and threads; networks; atomicity and coordination of parallel activities; recovery and reliability; privacy, security, and encryption; and impact of computer systems on society. Case studies of working systems and readings from the current literature provide comparisons and contrasts. Two design projects are required, and students engage in extensive written communication exercises. Syllabus This course makes use of Athena, MITs UNIX-based computing environment. OCW does not provide access to this environment. Course Meeting Times Lectures: 2 sessions / week, 1 hour / session Recitations: 2 sessions / week, 1 hour / session Tutorials: 1 session / week, 1 hour / session Prerequisites 6.004 Computation Structures Course Description This course covers topics on the engineering of computer software and hardware systems: techniques for controlling complexity; strong modularity using client-server design, virtual memory, and threads; networks; atomicity and coordination of parallel activities; recovery and reliability; privacy, security, and encryption; and impact of computer systems on society.
