16.317: Microprocessor Systems Design I
Instructor: Dr. Michael Geiger
Spring 2012
Course Schedule
This schedule
contains a tentative schedule of topics we will cover throughout the term; this
schedule is subject to change.
As the semester
progresses, I will update the schedule to show the actual dates on which we
cover material, as well as provide links to the lecture slides and programming
assignments. Note that most lectures are associated
with some section(s) of the textbook, which I suggest you read prior to class.
Please note that the exam dates are fixed—the first exam will be held on Friday, February 24 in class, the second exam will be held on Wednesday, April 4 in class, and the third exam will be held Thursday, May 10, 3:00-6:00 PM in Olsen 503 (note the room change).
