Advanced Database Systems

Compare

Overview This course is a comprehensive study of the internals of modern database management systems. It will cover the core concepts and fundamentals of the components that are used in both high-performance transaction processing systems (OLTP) and large-scale analytical systems (OLAP). The class will stress both efficiency and correctness of the implementation of these ideas. All class projects will be in the context of a real in-memory, multi-core database system. The course is appropriate for graduate students in software systems and for advanced undergraduates with dirty systems programming skills.

Hardware Accelerated Database Lectures

Compare

Overview Let's get real and talk about hardware acceleration for database management systems. We are flexing hard with another season of database technical talks at Carnegie Mellon University in Fall 2018. The "Hardware Accelerated Database Lectures" is a semester-long seminar series featuring speakers from the leading developers of DBMSs designed to exploit modern computational and storage hardware. Each speaker will present the implementation details of their respective systems and examples of the technical challenges that they faced when working with real-world customers.

:Principle of operation of hydraulic machines, Radial and axial flow pumps, Cavitation in radial flow pump etc.

Mobile App Development with React Native

Compare

Overview The course introduces you to modern JavaScript (including ES6 and ES7) as well as to JSX, a JavaScript extension. Through hands-on projects,you'll gain experience with React and its paradigms, app architecture, and user interfaces. The course culminates in a final project for which you'll implement an app entirely of your own design.

Introduction to Game Development

Compare

Overview Learn about the development of 2D and 3D interactive games in this hands-on course, as you explore the design of games such as Super Mario Bros., Pokmon, Angry Birds, and more.

Memory Systems

Compare

Overview In this course, we first provide a comprehensive overview of memory systems, taking an approach that covers both fundamentals and recent research. We first introduce fundamental principles and ideas, covering DRAM and emerging memory technologies as well as many architectural concepts and ideas related to memory organization, memory control, processing-in-memory, and memory latency / energy / bandwidth / reliability / security / QoS. We discuss major challenges facing modern memory systems (and the computing platforms we currently design around the memory system) in the presence of greatly increasing demand for data and its fast analysis. We examine some promising research and design directions to overcome these challenges. On the research-related part of course (sprinkled across topical lectures), we discuss the following key research topics in detail, focusing on both open problems and potential solution directions: Fundamental issues in memory reliability and security and how to enable fundamentally secure, reliable, safe architectures Enabling data-centric and hence fundamentally energy-efficient architectures that are capable of performing computation near data Reducing both latency and energy consumption by tackling the fixed-latency/energy mindset Enabling emerging memory technologies Enabling predictable and QoS-aware memory systems Research challenges and opportunities in enabling emerging NVM (non-volatile memory) technologies Scaling NAND flash memory and SSDs (solid state drives) into the future
