| About The Provider |
Alison is one of the world’s largest free
learning platforms for education and skills training. It is a for-profit social
enterprise dedicated to making it possible for anyone, to study anything,
anywhere, at any time, for free online, at any subject level. Through our
mission we are a catalyst for positive social change, creating opportunity,
prosperity, and equality for everyone. Alison was founded in Galway, Ireland, in 2007
and has grown organically to become a major force in free online education and
skills training. Today, with more than 13 million learners in 195 countries,
Alison is changing how the world learns and up-skills. They are committed to equality and access to
education and skills training irrespective of gender, geography, economic
status or any other barriers that can so often stunt potential. So they offer a
range of free courses that meet the many diverse needs of our learners. The UN
declared in Article 26 of the 1946 Declaration of Human Rights that “Education
shall be free…”. This statement will always inspire us. Alison was founded by Alison CEO, Mike Feerick. Mike is a businessman, but one with a
difference. He believes in social impact, and that you can build a financially
successful business focused on meeting a huge global social need, making
education and skills training more accessible for everyone. He invites anyone
who believes that too, to support the Alison mission.
Alison is free of charge to you. But it’s still
a business – albeit a socially-focused one. We are a social enterprise making
our money through advertising, merchandise, and the sale of Certificates and
Diplomas, should a graduate choose to buy one. |
Introduction to GCD Machine and Number Systems is a free course that begins by introducing you to the design and implementation of the greatest common divisor (GCD) algorithm, as well as its translation to Verilog. You will also be introduced to the problems associated with GCD, as well as top-level modules in GCD machines. Go on to learn about instantiation and Verilog syntax representation of a controller and data path, including the writing of various data path elements and data path analysis.
The course then explains pipelining in digital circuit design, as well as using it to model real-world systems, including studying the terminologies related to pipelines and the methodologies for these circuits. You will be taught about the latency and throughput of a K-pipeline, ill-formed pipelines, as well as the concept of ‘after pipelining’. The applications of assignments and the modelling of circuits with pipelining in Verilog will also be covered.
Furthermore, you will get familiar with number system representation and the operational computation of signed numbers. You will learn about ripple carry adder, as well as the computation of number systems using the recursive doubling technique. This free online course will be of great use anyone with an interest in GCD machines, pipelining and number systems.
