Abstract:
A project-oriented course for advanced undergraduate and graduate students is described for simulating multiple processor cores. Simics, a free simulator for academia, was utilized to enable students to explore computer architecture, operating systems, and hardware/software cosimulation. Motivation for including this course in the curriculum is provided along with a detailed syllabus and an assessment demonstrating its successful impact on the students.

He is currently an Assistant Professor with the Department of Computer Engineering, Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey. Prior to joining Bilkent University, he was a Software Optimization Engineer with the Cellular and Handheld Group, Intel (Marvell), Chandler, AZ. He also held Visiting Researcher positions with the ALCHEMY Group of INRIA, Paris, France, and with the Processor Architecture Laboratory (LAP), Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland. His research interests are in the areas of multicore and manycore architectures, power-aware architectures, and compiler optimizations.
Dr. Ozturk is a Member of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), the Gigascale Systems Research Center (GSRC), and the European Network of Excellence on High Performance and Embedded Architecture and Compilation (HiPEAC). He is currently serving as an Editor and a reviewer on leading IEEE, ACM, and other journals. He is a recipient of the 2006 International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Systems (ICPADS) Best Paper Award, a 2009 IBM Faculty Award, and a 2009 Marie Curie Fellowship from the European Commission.
