This is a project-oriented course to learn and experiments in
design and implementation techniques of modern computer systems.
In the first few weeks, the related topics will be reviewed
using reading materials such as journal/conference papers and
magazine articles. Possible topics and tools that can be used
for the projects will be introduced during this period.
For the rest of the quarter, in addition to the literature study,
students will report the progress of their project.
Some tools can be used on the workstation provided by the school,

using such tools.
