A method is proposed for the decoupling of design and manufacturing of micro- electromechanical systems (MEMS) and devices. A design infrastructure is to be developed that will allow non-experts to quickly design and simulate MEMS devices and systems. The philosophy follows the VLSI paradigm, where there is a clear separation between the wafer fabrication and the design effort that creates the pattern which is to be implemented. MEMS software tools, device models, and educational materials will be made available on the Internet. These tools will include schematic editing, layout synthesis, parameter extraction and simulation. The proposal also contains a strong education plan extending the PI's successes in recruiting undergraduates, including women and under-represented minorities, to become research students.

提出了一种微机电系统（MEMS）及其器件设计与制造解耦的方法. 将开发一种设计基础设施，使非专家能够快速设计和模拟MEMS设备和系统。 该理念遵循超大规模集成电路的范例，其中有一个明确的分离之间的晶圆制造和设计工作，创建的模式，这是要实现的。 MEMS软件工具、器件模型和教育材料将在互联网上提供。 这些工具将包括原理图编辑、布局合成、参数提取和模拟。 该提案还包含一个强有力的教育计划，扩大PI在招募本科生方面的成功，包括女性和代表性不足的少数民族，成为研究生。
