This course is envisioned to serve as an introduction to the field of Music Information Retrieval (MIR), covering both theoretical and practical elements of the field. This seminar aims to prepare students for research in MIR either in academia or industry. Topics will range from feature extraction and structure tasks to debates about the latest music-based apps and questions about music licensing. The course will embody the liberal arts experience by including technical programming assignments, position papers, and discussions about current research papers.

An introduction to the functions of an operating system and their underlying implementation. Topics include file systems, CPU and memory management, concurrent communicating processes, deadlock, and access and protection issues. Programming projects will implement and explore algorithms related to several of these topics. Prerequisite: 231. Enrollment limit of 40.

Automata and finite state machines, regular sets and regular languages; push-down automata and context-free languages; linear-bounded automata; computability and Turing machines; nondeterminism and undecidability. Prerequisites: 111 and MTH 153.

Focuses on several advanced programming environments, with a project for each. Includes object-oriented programming, graphical user interfaces (GUIs), and principles of software engineering. Topics cover the software development cycle, including versioning, code maintenance, cross-platform development, debugging as well as iterative testing and evaluation. Techniques include asynchronous and event-based programming, server-client development, data exchange via JSON. Prerequisite: 212.

Explores elementary data structures (linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, graphs) and algorithms (searching, sorting) in a variety of contexts, including event-driven applications with a graphical user interface. Emphasizes object-oriented programming throughout, using the Java programming language. Prerequisite: CSC 111.
