CS/ECE 757 Advanced Computer Architecture II Spring 2012 Section 1 Instructor Mark D. Hill and Assistant Jayneel Gandhi URL: http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~markhill/cs757/Spring2012/

Computer Science Lab

• Getting Started with information and links on activating a CS account, machines, Unix classes (usually first or second week of classes), and CSL policies.
• Complete Computer Systems Lab Wiki.

Homeworks will use a Sun Niagara system called malbec.cs.wisc.edu that is supported by my research group. Information on this accounts will come out later from programming assignments.

For your project, you may use any computing resourses at you disposal, e.g., in CAE, but we cannot guarantee support.
