Computer Science Seminar Reports and discussions of advanced computer science topics. Research and Thesis Directed research on some problem within an approved area of computer science. Examination and written thesis required. Pass-fail basis only. Independent Study Individual or group studies of advanced topics in computer science.
Selected study is done by appointment with the faculty.
Advanced Topics in Scientific Computing Advanced topics in scientific computing such as QZ algorithm for the generalized eigenvalue problem, frontal methods for sparse matrices, multigrid method, domain decomposition method, local grid refinement, curvilinear grid refinement and hybrid finite elements. Advanced topics in artificial intelligence and databases. May be repeated as a seminar course as often as needed, or as an organized course with change of topic and maximum graduate credit of nine hours. Advanced Topics in Computer Graphics and Image Processing Advanced topics in computer graphics and image processing such as ray tracing, object description construction, scene analysis and computer vision. Advanced Topics in Parallel Processing Advanced topics in parallel processing such as cellular automata, advanced parallel programming techniques, and other topics.
