Week 4 - Information Security and Computer Networks

No doubt, these past couple weeks have flown by. And although taking these two classes is definitely not a breeze, I do find that collectively the workload of the two courses is much more manageable than high performance computing architecture that I took over the summer term.

For IIS, I’ve completed the stack overflow project, which really stretched my current skills. Although I had prior experience with gdb, the project sharpened my understanding, forcing me to understand things such as the difference between the %ebp and %esp registers.
