=====Lectures=====
The course schedule will be very dynamic, determined on a weekly basis. There can be zero to three lectures or discussions any given week. When there are no lectures or discussions, students are expected to work on the literature survey and the research project.

In the [[readings|Readings]], CSG refers to "Parallel Computer Architecture: A Hardware/Software Approach" by Culler, Singh, and Gupta. HJS refers to "Readings in Computer Architecture" by Hill, Jouppi, and Sohi. D&T refers to "Principles and Practices of Interconnection Networks" by Dally and Towles.
