CS 520:Introduction to Operating Systems
The use and internals of modern operating systems. Lectures focus on internals, whereas programming assignments focus on use of the operating system interface. Major topics include: the process concept; concurrency and how to program with threads; memory management techniques, including virtual memory and shared libraries; file system data structures; and I/O. |

CS 537:Interactive Computer Graphics
This is an introductory-level course to computer graphics. No previous knowledge on the subject is assumed. The objective of the course is to provide a comprehensive introduction to the field of computer graphics, focusing on the underlying theory, and thus providing strong foundations for both designers and users of graphical systems. The course will study the conceptual framework for interactive computer graphics, introduce the use of OpenGL as an application programming interface (API), and cover algorithmic and computer architecture issues. |

CS 638:Advanced Computer Graphics
Mathematical foundations and algorithms for advanced computer graphics. Topics include 3-D modeling, texture mapping, curves and surfaces, physics-based modeling, and visualization. Special attention will be paid to surfaces and shapes. The class will consist of lectures and discussion on research papers assigned for reading. In class, we will study the theoretical foundations and algorithmic issues. In programming assignments, we will use OpenGL as the particular API for writing graphics programs. C/C++ programming skills are essential for this course. |

CS 538:Visual Analytics
Visual analytics is the combination of data filtering, statistical algorithms, and visual presentation in an interactive visual interface. This course provides an introduction to both information and scientific visualization. Topics include: perception (color, space/order, and depth/occlusion), interaction (navigation, zooming, focus, and context), design studies and evaluation, and data representation (graphs, trees, volumes, and time series). Applications include: software, scientific, financial, and cartographic visualization. Junior, senior, or graduate standing is required. |
