This course is devoted to computer system organizations and architectures. The course involves the study of computer architecture by the study of a simplified X86-like computer architecture. We will make great use of the material in "Computer Systems, A Programmer's Perspective", as well as some material specifically developed for this course.

In general, the information found in Code of Conduct is a good guide on how to conduct yourself in this class. Any scholastic dishonesty will be referred to the Dean of Students Office. The following passage is taken from the University of Texas at Austin Information Handbook for Faculty.

The Discipline Policies Committee believes that in most cases of scholastic dishonesty the student forfeits the right to credit in that course, and that a penalty of ``F'' for the course may be warranted. In addition to the academic penalties assigned by a faculty member, the Dean of Students or the hearing officer may assign one or more of the University discipline penalties listed in the "General Information" bulletin, Appendix C, Sections 11-501 and 11-502. Certain types of misconduct, such as a student substituting for someone else on an exam or having someone substitute for the student, submitting a purchased term paper, or altering academic records, have usually involved a penalty of suspension from the University.

I fully support the University's scholastic honesty policies, and I will follow the University's policies in the event of any scholastic dishonesty. If you are ever unsure whether some act would be considered in violation of the University's policies, do not hesitate to ask me or other University academic representatives.
