Peter Strazdins CSIT N219, 6125-55140, comp2300@cs
q lectures slides will be made available on the COMP2300 web
site at least one day before the corresponding lecture
q we advise you to print (the 4-up) lectures slides and
bring them to the lectures
q course Tutors: Peter Janes and Jie Cai q Phorum: http://cs.anu.edu.au/phorum s comp2300.announcements: posting from lecturers only s comp2300.talk: for your use
q printing lectures slides after lectures and learning from them is
not useful (the lectures slides are deliberately terse and incomplete)
q rather, add notes onto lectures slides during the lectures q reading from texts etc is necessary for developing your understanding

Course Assessment
q see the assessment web page q proposing a somewhat different assessment scheme from before s designed to promote engagement; test understanding rather than rote learning q Tute/Lab Marks: q Assignments: due weeks 5, 9 and 12 s note plagiarism issues and unacceptable vs acceptable collaboration:
see sections 6.4 and 6.5 of the DCS Student Handbook 10% 30%
Whats the course all about?
q the hardware-software interface q how the computer works q system-oriented programming q low-level programming q programmers view of computer hardware q eld of computer systems is based on 2 fundamental concepts: s abstraction: multiple levels of detail/description; x manage complexity, interfaces, standards s virtualization: give the appearance of a capability or service; decouple services
from underlying physical resources
q Mid-Semester Exam: tentatively Monday week 7; covers D and C modules q Final Exam: s 2 hours, 1 page A4 notes (both sides, printed or hand written), no calculator s former exam papers available from course page;
note web not all questions are applicable
20% 40%
x simplicity, exibility, better resource sharing q the computer systems mind-set: s real systems are very COMPLEX! s discern which parts are essential (for task-at-hand) rst; and (only) understand
in detail those 5 COMP2300 Lecture 1: Introduction 2007
q to obtain a D or HD, you will be expected to have read around the course e.g.

Why study computer systems?
s how to get it: pay $4 for COMP2300 Brick at MCC between 9.30am and q from the course web page: q better understanding of how computers work q machine oriented programming q operating system oriented programming q middleware programming (e.g. JVM) q better programmer s faster programs s safer programs s complex software systems q disruptive technologies are now emerging, potentially affecting all of IT q a reference book on C programming s C Programming: A Modern Approach, K.N. King, 1996 s Pure C Programming, Amir Afzal, 1999 s The C Programming Language, Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, 1988 s C Programming Made Simple by Conor Sexton, 1997 s probably any other ANSI (i.e. relatively modern!)
