ENCM 515 GOALS • Problem solving approach to investigate computer architecture, programming and interfacing with DSP processor bias using realtime audio channel modeling experiments. • Structured approach to programming, debugging and testing using a personal software process • Avoiding the errors on the basic repetitive stuff over which you have no control to get to the stuff you really want to do • Both assembly language and C programming language • Study using CISC, RISC and DSP processors. • Concentrate on the Analog Devices SHARC 21061 DSP processors in the class • Outside speakers and visits 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 3

Course material in 5 parts Review of CISC processor. (5% -- 10%) Introduction to RISC processors (10% -- 15%) Architectural requirements for DSP algorithms (10% -- 15%) Developing and applying a personal software process (5% -- 10%) Called a “personal” process because you make the decision about whether to bother to use review techniques to save time and frustrations Remember the “spend 5 to save 60” rule in labs! Matching the DSP processor architectural characteristics to your DSP algorithms -- hands-on approach (55% -- 70%) 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 4

Minimum grades on Quizzes/Exams • A passing grade is required on both the in term exam and on the combined term work component to earn better than a minimal passing grade (D) • Students must obtain at least a D (45%) on the final exam otherwise they will receive an F on the course regardless of the marks from the other components on the course. • Students must obtain at least a D+ (50%) on the weighted exams (midterm + final) in order to get higher than an overall D+ for the course regardless of the marks from the other components on the course. • Students must obtain at least a C- (60%) on the weighted exams (midterm + final) in order to get higher than an overall C for the course regardless of the marks from the other components on the course. • I would expect to see a mark of B- (70%) or better on the weighted exams (midterm + final) in order to get A or A- for the course regardless of the marks from the other components on the course. • The laboratory quizzes will be a short written quiz to evaluate each individual student's understanding of what is required during the laboratory. Will be done in class before the first section does the laboratory. ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme • Students 12/7/2020 not in attendance at the start of the lab quiz get an automatic zero. 8 Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca

Prelaboratory Material Hand-in The Pre. Laboratory material must be handed in at the start of the laboratory (2: 00 p. m). Since there are no lab. exams then there is a chance to immediately mark it and return. Late work not accepted (50% penalty per 5 minutes) on the Pre. Laboratory material hand-in, so please get the material printed off ahead of time. All Pre. Laboratory and laboratory material must include a hand-written. signed cover note indicating that the work has been done by that student group and has not been plagiarized by the students and that they have not allowed other students to plagiarize the material by any means, verbally, written or electronically Students not in attendance at the start of the lab get an automatic zero for the Pre. Laboratory material. 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 9

Laboratory Report Hand-in • Since laboratory partners will hand in similar programs for the laboratories, it is satisfactory that one laboratory report be handed in with both students names on it. • If your partner(s) is/are not contributing to the laboratory, do not add their name to the report. • Groups of 2 unless unavoidable. • You must attend, and remain in, the laboratory working on the 515 laboratory material to receive marks for that laboratory. Attendance will be taken. • The tutorial periods may be used as lectures on new material (but I have tried hard to avoid this. ) • Quizzes will probably be held during the tutorial but may be moved around the week, possibly at short notice, to accommodate job interviews etc • A small class size makes movement of quizzes possible. Please notify me as early as possible so we can get class agreement. • May also shift marks to midterm and final exams. 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 10

Quizzes and Examinations • Calculators are not allowed in examinations or quizzes. • The final examination and quizzes are "closed book" excepting one unmarked ENCM SHARC reference and Motorola 68 K reference cards. • Use of unauthorized material will be punished in accordance with University Regulations. Please give both of us a break! • If you know you will miss a quiz, contact the instructor ASAP and beforehand -- it is possible to reschedule an in-class quiz with this small class. 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 11

Books and Course Notes • The course material will mainly be covered using Power. Point presentations. • There is time for students to add notes to the prepared handouts, but not enough time to copy down the slides. • It is EXPECTED that students come in having read the course notes so they know what they don’t know. • It is REQUIRED that students obtain their own copies of the course lecture, reference and laboratory notes. • The powerpoint presentations for the lectures are available on the web this year. Please print them off before coming to the class. • I plan to handout the notes for the laboratories. They will be available from the ECE office at cost. 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 12

Laboratory Expectations -- 1 Each laboratory experiment will require the following: • Familiarity with the concepts to be handled, Design of a computer program and a hardware interface. • Development of a personal software process -- mainly code and design review -- to avoid wasting time on the standard stuff that is the same every lab and quiz. • Remember “Spend 5 to save 60” • You can expect to spend several hours in preparing files prior to the laboratory. This may involve cutting, pasting and completing files provided as web pages. • Spending the time before the laboratory will mean that you complete within the laboratory period and will be prepared for the in-laboratory quizzes and handing in screen dumps of certain Pre. Laboratory development work. 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 17

Laboratory Expectations 2 Each laboratory experiment will require the following: • Implementation of a computer program. • Software engineering process control to avoid repeating the errors from previous laboratories • Testing of the computer program and hardware. • Demonstration of the completed, working experiment. • Documentation of the computer program and hardware. • Preparation of a laboratory report (including documentation). • Declaration of Authenticity -- Pre. Laboratory and Laboratory material must be supported by a cover note indicating that the work is your own, it has not been plagiarized and that you have not allowed others to plagiarize. See ENCM 515 web page on student ethics 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 18

Lab. Report information • Laboratory reports are due exactly one week after the laboratory period. One per laboratory group is okay • They are to be handed in to the instructor at the start of class on the Friday morning • Late reports will be penalized at the rate of 20% per day late. • Marking times for the demos will be announce ahead of time. • All demonstrations of work for Lab. 1 and Lab. 2 must be completed before the start of reading week. 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 19

Own work and FOIP • The university regulations with regard to Plagiarism/Cheating/Other Academic Misconduct are given in the University Calendar. • Plagiarism is the presentation of the work of others as if it were the student's own work. I will follow through with any problems despite the time and hassle it causes me as I think plagiarism degrades everybody’s reputation and quality of B. Sc. degree. • Put marking sheets at the back of your work with name, ID number, lab section and lab. station. • Put Name and Section Number and Lab. Station on the front page so can hand-back work during Labs easily and FOIPed 12/7/2020 ENCM 515 -- Course outline and marking scheme Copyright smithmr@ucalgary. ca 20
