An understanding of the total operating environment will be de-veloped . Investigation of the common programming techniques and their theory. Segmentation and overlays, recursion, dynamic storage processing , (stacks, queues , trees). macros . ICS 630 PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES Introduction to data structures and data types , and understanding of the modern approach to structured programming will be de-veloped . A comparative study of several high-level programming languages. Emphasis wil l be placed on how concepts are ex-pressed in each of the major languages, such as FORTRAN, COBOL, PL! 1, PASCAL, and ALGOL. ICS 634 COMPILER DESIGN THEORY Language theory will be applied to the design of a compiler for a high-level language . Parsing , syntax analysis , interpretation phase and code generation . Other areas of the compilation process will be covered, such as storage allocation , symbol table management, searching and sorting , and recursion .

PREREQUISITE: CONSENT OF INSTRUCTOR ICS 680 MICROPROGRAMMING AND MICROPROCESSORS The past , present and future of Microprogramming will be dis-cussed in detail with particular attention given to Processor Technology. An in-depth survey of commercially available mi-croprogrammable microprocessors will be presented as well as monolithic microprogrammed devices . The students will imple-ment a processor instruction set in both vertical and horizontal microcode utilizing a Simulator, Micro-assembler, and Register Transfer language. Advanced topics in special-purpose processor design and architecture redefinition (dynamic) will be presented. PREREQUISITE: CONSENT OF INSTRUCTOR. ICS 690 SOFTWARE ENGINEERING This course offers a thorough analysis of the problems related to the design, development and implementation of Software Projects. First , the fundamentals of Software project management are pre-sented , followed by a discussion of the techniques of Software development. A comprehensive , modern approach to structu red programming , program modularization and program correctness is offered . Software Verification and Validation , Software security and Software protection will also be analyzed in detail.
