CS 15-212: Fundamental Principles of Computer Science II

CS 15-212 is the second semester of the Fundamental Principles of Computer Science sequence at Carnegie Mellon University. The overall goal of the course is to teach high level programming techniques, with an emphasis on abstraction and reasoning about programs. For more information, consult the course syllabus.

This is the home page for the track 15-212-X which is taught using the Standard ML programming language (Instructor: Frank Pfenning). Do not confuse this with the track which is taught using Java (Instructor: Thomas Gross).

The server you are currently using was developed by the Fox Project at Carnegie Mellon University and is written completely in an extension of the Standard ML programming language. This includes the HTTPD server and the TCP/IP protocol stack used by the server (essentially everything down to the network device driver).
