System-Level Programming

  • 02.10.2025: The exam review will take place on Tuesday, October 14th, from 09:00 to 10:00 in the 'Aquarium' (Room 0.031).
  • 01.07.2025: Because of spontaneous construction work in the WinCIP, the computer exercises are moved to the CIP1 (except of R10 in CIP1-N, and R07 is canceled). The CIP1 can be reached from the CIP1-N.
  • 26.05.2025: The computer exercises on the 30th of May will take place in the room 02.151 (2. Stockwerk) because of construction work.
  • 23.04.2025: The registration for the exercises will open on Friday, 25.04.2025, at 18:00 via the Waffel system. Please make sure to select the only english exercise marked with "only SLP"!
  • 23.04.2025: The registration for the soldering night will open today, 23.04.2025, at 18:00 via the Waffel system.
  • 23.04.2025: For everyone who does not have a login for the Computer-Science CIPs, each student has to create one by logging in with username "cipan" and password "cipan" in the CIP pools (or via the online registration tool). After entering all required data, the account will be created. As this takes some time to process, please make sure to complete this step before the first exercise. For problems with the account creation please contact the CIP admins during their Sprechstunde / consultation hours.
  • 16.04.2025: Because of the delayed semester start on Wednesday instead of Tuesday, there will be two additional lectures on Wednesday, 23.04.2025, 14:15 - 15:45, in 0.031 and on Thursday, 24.04.2025, 12:15 - 13:45, in 0.031.
  • 24.01.2025: Initial version of the website is online.

Content of the Lecture

Based on the computer science knowledge from Algorithms, Programming, and Data Representation and first programming experience with the Python programming language, the lecture aims to impart basic knowledge of system-level programming (SLP).
