Abstract

A rapid growth of IT convergence into different application areas draws a lot of interest in high performance platform and embedded system. Industry needs well educated computer professionals with the practical understanding on the emerging technologies and core issues of contemporary popular services. In this paper, we present an education framework for computer system architecture based on rigorous analyses of the characteristics of IT convergence services and information technology trends. The proposed framework puts emphasis on real-world and hands-on subjects related to multicore architecture, embedded system and parallel processing. We believe effective use in the development and management of computer system architecture courses encouraging both industries and students.

일상에서 쉽게 접하는 스마트폰, 센서, 의료융합 같은 서비스들은 서로다른 규모의 정보 시스템으로 실현되지만 대부분 고성능 플랫폼과 내재화 기술에 바탕을 두고 있다. 다양한 IT융합 응용 시스템을 연구개발하는 산업계는 신기술과 핵심 이슈를 이해하고 실무능력을 갖춘 전문인력의 양성과 확보에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 본 논문에서는 IT융합 서비스의 기술적 특성과 요구사항, 컴퓨터 기술의 발전 동향을 함께 고려하는 아키텍쳐 교육 프레임워크를 제안하고 학습자들의 실무능력을 배양하는 교과목 운영방안을 제시한다. 제안하는 프레임워크는 멀티코어 기반 시스템 아키텍쳐, 내재화와 병렬처리 중심의 현실감 있는 실험실습과 시의적절한 캡스톤 설계 방안을 모색하고 있어 새로운 정보기술을 따라잡고 현장적응력을 강화하는 아키텍쳐 강좌의 개발과 운영에 효과적인 활용이 기대된다.
