This lecture introduces the functions of UNIX operating system. UNIX is common and basic operating system of Linux, MacOS and many servicer side operating systems. Understanding the UNIX operating system helps for current computer system. The functions of the operating system are File System, Device I/O, Process management, Memory management, Inter Process Communications, Signaling/Interrupt handling and Network functions (includes TCP/IP protocol stack).
In this lecture, understanding those operating system functions by writing system programs in language C.
This class is an environmental design practice studio that integrates architecture, urban design, and landscape architecture.
Architecture is necessary for people to live. Architecture is an artificial work, but human life is deeply related to nature in many ways. Human beings are a part of nature, and getting close to nature is a basic human desire. On the other hand, nature sometimes shows a life-threatening appearance. The fundamental role of architecture is to protect human life from the harsh aspects of nature, and at the same time, enjoy the blessings of nature and enjoy it from the bottom of our hearts.
Students will draw a new landscape image of the subject region by presenting a design for a given theme or the found problem after analyzing the region's situation with open data and information technology. Students are expected to understand the environmental strategy that builds the relationship between nature and human beings and acquire skills.
The goal of this class is to teach the basics of electronic construction to beginners using Arduino microcontroller board/development environment, and to acquire the skills to give shape to their ideas.
With the spread of machine tools and programming tools for personal fabrication, it has become possible for individuals to develop products similar to those of manufacturers.
In addition, hardware prototyping plays an important role not only in product development but also in the progress of various projects in the areas of design and expression.
Through the actual creation of a work of art, students will have the experience of designing their own circuits from an idea and creating a working prototype. The aim is not to explain the basic theory of analog/digital circuits, but to learn the basic skills of manufacturing using electronic circuits.
In this class, students will learn the theory and techniques of "observation," "sketching," and "drawing." These are the skills needed for design.
The design includes the actions of finding (observing) problems, devising (interpreting) solutions, and materializing (expressing). Hand-drawn sketches include these actions.
Today, sensing, modeling, and rendering technologies using digital devices have advanced and become widespread. But it is crucial to practice observing and expressing with the body in real space to master digital technology.
This lesson is an introductory lesson for beginners who want to move into some design area, and it is intended for those who have no experience in sketching or drawing. Students will learn the process and theory of observing a landscape, thinking about its form, structure, meaning, and expressing it in pictures and figures.
This class is also related to the course offered in the fall semester with the same title. Both have the same aim of observation and expression, but the faculty member in charge is different, and the viewpoints of theory and the tools are different. Taking both courses together is recommended.
In this course, we will work on impression management, a core skill in graphic design. We will mobilize our physicality and senses to challenge communication design, mainly using letters as a motif.
The class format is "workshop + small lecture", aiming to acquire not "knowledge" but "wisdom". The workshop will focus on production and review of works. There will be a lot of work done outside of class. There will also be a review of each other's works by the students (we are considering how to respond to COVID-19). In this way, we will repeat the process of "thinking, creating, seeing, and noticing", and aim to develop the ability to objectively perceive information transmission and manipulate the impressions conveyed.
In addition, we welcome the use of "analog methods" in our work. (This often results in powerful expressions, discoveries, and effects.)
In this class, professors in charge of management, organization, and neighboring fields give omnibus-style classes.
The main aim of each course is to explain each specialized field and tell the students what kind of stance approach they are taking to research that field.
This class is suitable for a wide range of reviews of management, organization and neighboring fields.
This course will look at the economic features and business model evolution of information communication technology (ICT) industry. We will examine through various case studies the survival strategy of ICT operators facing ever-increasing market competition and in conjunction understand global market movements and government-business relationships.
This studio is intended for students who are in the beginning stages of architectural design.
Students will analyze masterpieces of modern architecture and design a house on a real site using the analysis method.
Literature review of strategic management. participants were to pre-read the papers and participate the in-class discussion
A programs can be seen as a mathematical function which calculate output value for a given input. However, it is not a simple mathematical function. It is not a total function, but a partial one. In order to understand the property of programs, it is necessary to introduce topology of complete partial order. In this lecture, we will study lambda calculus, domain theory, category theory and so on which are base for mathematical theory of programs.
The acquisition of communication based foreign language skills, which students can competently practice in their daily life, is the top priority goal of German education at SFC. In this course new topics and grammar will be introduced every week. The learning materials are developed to match the student’s school life, area of study and personal interests while studying at SFC. The steps of the grammar lessons as well as the important subjects are all based on the curriculum at SFC. The students will learn around 10 key sentences as well as 40 to 50 words per week. In one semester they will be freely able to communicate with 100 to 150 key sentences and 700 words. Students who will complete the intensive courses 1 and 2 will be able to acquire all basic German grammar, which will be equivalent to the A2 level of CEFR. ("Basic 1" and "basic 2" are equivalent to the "intensive course 1" level.)

We have so many programming languages in the world. In this course, we investigate common concepts behind various programming languages. Our main goal is to gain the fundamental knowledge of computer science such as formal grammar, data types, programming paradigms, etc. through the concepts found in programming languages. Note that we focus on theoretical understanding, not practical skills of programming.
The Web is an indispensable foundation for providing information on the Internet. In this course, we will introduce Web technologies: Web page description languages such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, Web server inclusing handling form interaction, foundation technologies such as XML and RDF.
We learn a wide range of security knowledge specific example cryptography, authentication technology, security issues, security vulnerabilities, such as information security management standard. In addition, we understand the importance of the management of information security risk. Depending on the change, we will update from time to time in the contents.
Order to obtain a wide range of knowledge, several research reports are needed.
This course is aimed to learn finance theory, particularly investment theory and derivatives.
The keywords are "risk" and "return."
We consider the problem of portfolio decision that individual investors make in financial markets and the equilibrium in this markets.
We can see many applications of these theory using historical financial data.
This course employs case studies in its discussion of mobile and distributed programming space programming context-aware programming intellectual information space construction and ubiquitous service architecture.
What is transculturalism? Is it similar to multiculturalism or interculturalism? For us, it paves the way to a third possibility different from them, and this course aims to bring to light the scope and the potentiality of this concept.
The objective of transculturalism is not only to ensure the coexistence of cultural communities through a public recognition of their plurality. Nor does it simply consist of guaranteeing intercultural communications and compromises in order to protect the rights of citizens and to create national stability.
Transculturalism pays attention primarily to the individual who cuts across cultural borders and to the meaning of her or his experiences as a human subject.
Today, in this globalized world, it is a rather banal experience to encounter foreign cultures and discover others. Transcultural experience, however, is not to observe some cultures from the outside, but to experience them at once from the inside, which requires the individual to call into question her or his proper identity. As it were, because of taking root in several cultural communities through their language, one becomes aware that her or his identity is not entirely defined by her or his belonging to one of these cultures. In this sense, “tranculturation” is nothing less than ”the acquisition of a new code without losing the previous one.” (T.Todorov) Transculturalism, which is neither a shallow cosmopolitanism that ignores communal dimensions of culture, nor an unconditional praise of cultural plurality in its brightness, provides a unique domain and objective of research on human living in this world. This course investigates the meaning of transculturation given to human agents, particularly from the point of view of humanities.
Mobile network becomes an indispensable communication infrastructure not only for 5G/4G service but also for private network such as WiFi, BLE, LPWA and smart grid. The understanding of mobile network requires the fundamental wireless communication technology, international standardization and radio regulations. In this course, we learn those topics with concrete case studies.
With the impressive developments of ICT, a new field of research on learning called Learning Environment Theory is gaining popularity. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic is forcing institutions that promote education to make major structural changes. As a result, traditional ideas about the meaning of learning environments, in which formal learning in the classroom and informal learning outside the classroom work together, efforts to create autonomous learning environments are now going through a major transformation.
Learning Environment Theory has connections with a variety of disciplines, including cognitive science, neuroscience, culture, and communication.
In addition to Learning Environment Theory, research on education is exploring the possibility of bringing in new perspectives, such as globalization and education, integrated education/individualized autonomous learning, and situated learning. Consequently, the idea of Environmental Design is gaining importance as well.
In these lectures, four faculty members will discuss ICT-based learning environments based on research in their respective fields at this important time, with the aim of producing human resources with a broad range of knowledge and practical skills: promoting collaboration between those involved in education and those in technology, considering the needs of learners, and developing contents that reflect new learning styles, with emphasis on awareness of the existence of new trends. Students will be invited to articulate proposals for developing learning environments that exploit their creativity in building a new learning environment through theory and practice.
(This class will be taught on-line. Students are required to actively participate with their cameras on.)
This postgraduate HC program course focuses on the interrelationships between language and society. Emphasising the linguistic-social-cultural diversity and the accompanying issues of language inequality, we will focus on linguistic policy, language education, heritage language, indigenous language, oral narratives, language revitalisation, among others, to explore the intersecting realms of multilingualism and multiculturalism. We will approach these research areas from the disciplinary bases of sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology, especially the critical theory strand within these disciplines. There will be a core reading assigned with accompanying reference materials, and the course will consist of reading seminars of the core text, followed by student research presentations around the topics covered in the reading material.

Computers and artifacts around us are getting complicated, and human-computer interface technologies for those machines are becoming very important. When a user feels that a system is too complicated and difficult to use, it is usually not because the user is not trained enough, but the human interface of the system is not well-designed.
In this lecture, we learn various aspects of human-computer interaction and discover how we can design user-friendly systems. We first learn the basic concepts of human-computer interface, and view the usability issues from the viewpoint of cognitive science. We learn the difference between a good interface design and a bad one by investigating many existing systems. We learn various new technologies for improving user experiences, and finally we'll get the whole knowledge for designing better interactive systems.
