Abstract

ARM announces a technical seminar specifically for university students, staff, and others interested at CMU. In about an hour, the workshop covers the company business model, ARM processors and architectures, programmer’s models, the ARM Instruction Set Architecture, basic system design, core pipelines, power issues, development tools, and a demonstration of the latest ARM technology. The seminar is free to students, faculty, and others.

If you are an engineering or computer science student studying hardware or software, computer architecture / organization, embedded, real-time systems / applications, microprocessors/MCUs, low-power applications, robotics, mechatronics, or you’re starting a project, you will find this short course useful. Think of it as a crash course on ARM.
