Online course on "Computing Technology"

For all the computer enthusiasts (and those who want to learn about the basics of computer design), there is an online course which started recently. It covers most of the basics of processor design starting from digital electronics till the programming end(the different layers of development and also the various jobs that are built around those layers :) ).

The link to the course is  : The Computing Technology Inside Your Smartphone

The course, though may be named as the "The Computing Technology Inside Your Smartphone", covers the fundamental of computer architecture with the case study of Qualcomm's Snapdragon processor which is used in plethora of smartphones in modern day(Smartphones from a wide range of companies like Samsung, HTC, Lenovo, Xiomi, etc use Qualcomm's snapdragon SoC{SoC is semiconductor industry jargon for System-on-Chip} ).

Kindly enroll in this course as it starts from the basics and gives out a strong idea about how such a large computer (from the PC era) has shrunk to size where it can be accommodated in our pockets(the smartphone era).

Even if you do not know anything about the electronics, this course can definitely help lay a foundation of electronics. Moreover you will be designing one such processor yourself.

Cheers !!!
Happy Learning !!! :)
