Collaborative Research: Architecture, Design and Implementation of Mobile Computers

这是两所大学为移动的计算机的快速原型而共同努力的成果。 这些项目涉及学生团队，他们在一个学期的课程中设计移动的计算机系统的硬件、软件和包装，并通过将标准电子部件与定制的外壳和互连线束相结合来制造原型。 该项目主要关注电信网络诊断的移动的计算。 包括固定和移动的计算机、接口设备和软件的移动的计算机系统正被设计和制造用于这些应用。 该项目的目标是系统化的原型设计过程中的几种方式：通过提供一个集成的设计工具，可以同时代表电子，热，机械约束;通过提供模块化模板架构的移动的计算机;并通过报告的经验，在软件，移动的硬件，固定硬件的协同设计在一个移动的计算系统。

This is a joint effort between two universities for rapid prototyping of mobile computers. The projects involve teams of students who over the course of a semester design the hardware, software, and packaging of mobile computer systems, and fabricate prototypes by combining standard electronic parts with custom fabricated cases and interconnect harnesses. This project focusses primarily on mobile computing for the diagnosis of telecommunications networks. Mobile computer systems that include stationary and mobile computers, interface devices, and software, are being designed and fabricated for these applications. The project goal is to systematize the prototyping process in several ways: by providing an integrated design tool that can simultaneously represent electronic, thermal, and mechanical constraints; by providing modular template architectures for mobile computers; and by reporting on experience in the co-design of software, mobile hardware, and stationary hardware in a mobile computing system.
