History of computer architecture. See the blurb in the catalog. This is a change: I am teaching 341, and not 351. (Must also enroll for lab: 341L.2 Tue 2:00-3:15 or 341L.3 Thur 2:00-3:15, both in ESCP 109.)

Fall 2001: UNM CS 451, Programming Paradigms. Mon/Wed 4:00-5:15, ME 214. Available for ITV.
Learn some very different programming languages (Prolog, Java, ML, Haskell) and something about the formal study of programming language semantics. A working knowledge of Scheme, as would be obtained in CS 257, is a prerequisite for this class.

Fall 2001: UNM CS/EECE 547, Neural Networks. Mon/Wed 5:30-6:45, CE 103.
Neural Networks, covered from two perspectives: that of an engineer who wants to build working systems, and of a scientist who wants to know how brain-like systems can process information. Emphasis on hands-on experience. Substantial final project.

Fall 2001: UNM CS 591.005, Brain and Computation Journal Club. Tue 4:00-5:00, ME 436.
Everyone in my laboratory - ie everyone who attends lab meetings - should be signed up for this. Others by permission only. Sign up for 1-3 credits, depending on how much you work in the lab.

Spring 2001: UNM CS 591.x, Brain and Computation Journal Club. Everyone working in the lab should be signed up for this. ME-436, Time TBA.

Spring 2001: UNM CS 351, Design of Large Programs. Tue/Thur 2:00-3:15, TAPY 201.
A projects course with emphasis on object-oriented analysis, design, and programming. Also discussed are programming language issues, programming tools, and other computer science concepts as needed to do the projects (e.g., discrete-event simulation, parsing). Programs will be written in C++.

Fall 2000: UNM CS 547 / ECE 547, Neural Networks, Mon/Wed 5:30-6:45, TAPY 217. CS call number 11099. (Undergrads welcome! Enroll as CS 491.18, call number 20122.)

Fall 2000: UNM CS 591.5, Brain and Computation Journal Club, Tue 5:30, ME 436, call number 20123.
This class is primarily intended for people associated with the Brain and Computation lab. We will be reading and presenting papers from the literature and discussing ongoing research. Please do not register without permission of instructor. (Cross listed as: PSYCH 650.020 call no 20267, and CS 491.x call no xxx)

Spring 2000: UNM CS 591.xxx / CS 491.030 / Psych 650.xxx, Brain and Computation,
Time TBA (probably 2:30pm Fridays), ME 436.
Everyone working in my lab and attending lab meetings should take this. Others must consult with me before registering.

Fall 1998: UNM CS 592, Computer Science Colloquium Series.
Tue/Thur 3:30-4:30, ME 214
Join the CS department as we show contempt of our illustrious speakers by forcing them to present their work in the worst seminar room on campus. Big change this term: transparencies are okay - no more ``hair club for men'' videos.
