This CRCD project supports the development of materials for teaching Hardware and Software Codesign. This addresses design for digital systems that are built with a combination of specialized circuits, general purpose microprocessors, and software. Traditional courses examine such systems as their separate hardware and software parts under the assumption that the other part is fixed. Codesign allows examining how decisions in one domain affect the other domain. This project will build on research in simulators for codesign use; the project will build a simulator version for teaching use and incorporate it into a senior design course and will introduce codesign concepts in other courses. A workbook, text, or interactive CD-ROM will be produced to distribute this material. Overall, this project will introduce more realistic design projects into the curriculum and enable more realistic optimization of design projects.

该CRCD项目支持硬件和软件协同设计教学材料的开发。 这解决了数字系统的设计，这些系统是由专用电路、通用微处理器和软件组成的。 传统的课程将这些系统视为独立的硬件和软件部分，并假设另一部分是固定的。 协同设计允许检查一个域中的决策如何影响另一个域。 该项目将建立在用于协同设计的模拟器研究的基础上;该项目将建立一个用于教学的模拟器版本，并将其纳入高级设计课程，并将在其他课程中引入协同设计概念。 将制作一本工作手册、文本或互动光盘来分发这些材料。 总的来说，这个项目将引入更现实的设计项目到课程，使设计项目更现实的优化。
