CSE741A
Pervasive Healthcare
Technologies (Fall 2013)
Course Description: Ubiquitous connectivity
and computing are bringing about unprecedented mobility - allowing
working, entertainment, shopping, socializing, gaming, etc., anytime,
anywhere. This trend is also infiltrating health care, promising
significant improvements in quality , convenience, reach and cost of
care through "pervasive health" solutions. Pervasive health solutions
enable diagnosis, therapy and monitoring of health-related conditions by
tracking relevant biomarkers, managing treatment regimen and monitoring
progress. This seminar provides an introduction to pervasive health by
covering related topics in health care, wireless communications,
biomedical instrumentation, clinical studies, information technology and
persuasive psychology.
CSE741B
Selected Topics in Mobile and Embedded Systems (Fall 2014)
Course Description: This seminar course
introduce the emerging research on mobile and embedded systems (MES).
The topics include energy-efficient sensing, battery management, mobile
human computer interface (HCI), mobile security, smartphone
crowd-sourcing and etc. Through lectures, paper presentation and
projects (optional), students will learn design methodologies,
technologies and applications of current mobile and embedded systems.
Specifically, we will cover the topics such as mobile energy, mobile
security, mobile health, mobile HCI, embedded sensing, embedded
computing, etc.
CSE741C
Security Techniques on Emerging Biometrics and IoT (Fall 2015,
Fall 2017)
Course Description: This seminar course concentrates on the discussion of emerging biometrics and
IoT security systems. After reviewing traditional biometrics, a set of emerging biometrics (e.g., soft biometrics, behavioral patterns, etc.) will be in-depth discussed. Also, the seminar will discuss recently research work on mobile user authentication, particularly focusing on biometrics-based approaches. By the end of the seminar, students will learn how to evaluate (i.e., performance metrics) and design user authentication systems using biometrics.
CSE741D
Selected Topics on Internet of Things (Fall 2016)
Course Description: This seminar course concentrates on the discussion of emerging internet-of-things (IOT) systems. After reviewing traditional embedded, mobile and systems, a set of new applications and technologies will be in-depth discussed. Also, the seminar will discuss recently research work on IoT systems, and focus on both technologies and applications. By the end of the seminar, students will review the concept, design, implementation and applications of IoT
topics.
CSE490/590
Computer Architecture (Spring
2014/Spring 2015/Spring 2016/Spring 2017)
Course Description: This course is a
study of the evolution of computer architecture and the factors
influencing the design of hardware and software elements of computer
systems. Topics may include: instruction set design; processor
micro-architecture and pipelining; cache and virtual memory
organizations; protection and sharing; I/O and interrupts; in-order
and out-of-order superscalar architectures; VLIW machines; vector
supercomputers; multithreaded architectures; symmetric
multiprocessors; and parallel computers. We will also address the
modern computing unit design, such as Field-Programmable Gate Array
(FPGA) architectures. Through lectures, assignments and projects, the
students in the course will learn the fundamentals of modern
micro-processors and reconfigurable computing units.
CSE341
Computer Organization (Fall 2017)
Course Description: This course is a
study of basic hardware and software issues of computer organization. Topics include computer abstractions and technology, performance evaluation, instruction set architecture, arithmetic logic unit design, advanced computer arithmetic, datapath
and control unit design, pipelining, memory hierarchy, input-output. Recent
knowledge about computers will be introduced in the class, including
accelerator-rich computers, brain-inspired computers and quantum computers.
