课程目标

通过学习计算机科学概论这门入门课程，让学生对计算机科学技术有感性认识，使学生初步掌握计算机科学与技术的内涵（概念、定义、模型、方法、原理、工具等）与学科特点，了解学科的发展方向与行业应用，具备初步的计算机使用技能，为后续相关专业课程的深度学习奠定基础。

课程简介

教材用英-中双语写成，系统而又概要地介绍了计算机学科的定义、范畴、特点以及发展与变化的规律等。本课程的目的不是让学生学习大量具体的专业知识，而是针对所有对计算机感兴趣的学生进行入门性导引。全书由16章组成（绝大多数章节的内容都是学生们后续需要必修或者选修的一门单独的课程），分为6大部分：前言与绪论，数据表示与操作，计算机硬件，计算机软件，数据组织与抽象以及高级与前沿专题(比如，物联网、云计算，大数据等)，涵盖了计算机科学各个领域（包括最新领域）的最新进展、所有的经典与丰富的前沿主题，以及跨学科、跨行业的应用，可以拓展读者的知识视野，能够帮助他们较全面地了解计算机科学的学科特点与发展现状，为今后深入学习计算机科学的各门专业课程打下基础。本书每一章末尾都包含本章小结，附有一定量的参考读物，包括部分最新的文献，以及一定量的练习，以帮助学生巩固已学的知识和课后进行深入的探讨。

教学内容与学时分配

第一单元导论   (15pp) (3hrs), 包含，通过经典的电影片段，比如，电影《简·爱》中的主人罗切斯特先生与简爱小姐关于人人平等的对话，《音乐之声》的主题曲“雪绒花”中蕴含的“爱我祖国”的情怀，片中上尉军官克里斯托弗·普卢默不背叛自己的祖国去给希特勒当汉奸的节操，对学生进行社会主义核心价值观（平等，爱国等）的教育，以及介绍中国在IT领域取得的巨大成就，比如，超级计算机，5G等等。

第二单元数制与转换   (14pp) (2hrs)

第三单元数据存储与压缩   (24pp) (3hrs)

第四单元数据操作(16pp) (2hr)

第五单元计算机组成(18pp) (3hr)

第六单元计算机网络(20pp) (3hr)

由于该课程只分配了16个讲授课时。这就决定了讲授内容只能是有选择性的，即只能讲授主要的章节，大量的内容没有时间去讲，这对任何一位授课教师都是挑战，同时，也为学生们提供了独立自学其他章节内容的机会。

实验教学（包括上机学时、实验学时、实践学时）

无

Prerequisites

High-level domain   English, Sound Math

Student Outcomes

 (Special   Training Ability)

(1)   Ability to use domain English fluently, have solid knowledge on basic   principles, methods and means of computer science, well-prepared for each follow-up   domain course learning.

(2)   An ability to creatively use the basic principles of computer science to   solve related problems encountered in real life.

Course Objectives

The   main purpose of this course is not to let students learn a large amount of   specific domain knowledge, but to give an introductory guide to those who are   interested in computing science, to help students master the basic concepts,   definitions, models, principles, methodology, and tools of computer science,   understand the trend of its development and its applications, acquire the   preliminary skills of operating the computer and programming, and lay a   foundation for learning other related courses in the future.

Course Description

The textbook is written   in full English with Chinese translations for all technical terms to help   Chinese and foreign readers to understand the meaning of the contents   precisely. It provides a systematic but brief introduction to computer   science, including its definition, category, characteristic and developing   status. The main purpose of this course is not to let students learn a large   amount of specific domain knowledge, but to give an introductory guide to   those who are interested in computing science. This book consists of 16 Units   (most Units are stand-alone compulsory or optional courses in successive   years of students further studies), divided into 6 parts: Preface and   Introduction, Data representation and Operation; Computer Hardware；Computer Software；Data Organization and   Abstraction；Advanced and Hot   Topics (e.g., Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, and Big Data etc.). It is   presented in English with Chinese translations of all technical terms   embedded to help Chinese and foreign readers to understand the meaning of the   contents precisely. It covers the latest advances in each field of computer   science (including some hot fields) and all classic and plenty of the   cutting-edge topics, as well as interdisciplinary and cross-sectors   applications. This way, it can broaden readers’ horizons of knowledge, help   them fully understand the characteristics and fellow the developing status of   computer science, and lay a sound foundation for more advanced studies of   computing science in the future. Enclosed with each chapter end are a   Summary, a certain number of References and Recommended Readings (including   some up-to-date ones), and a Practice Set to help readers better digest and   consolidate what they learned, and encourage them to explore further after   the lecture.
