CISE Educational Infrastructure: Incorporating Design and Design Automation into the Undergraduate Computer Science Curriculum

小行星9522265 本计画将结合硬体设计的新研究，以及自动化软体的设计，以提升本科课程的品质。将开设三门新的课程，第四门课程正在计划中。三个现有的本科硬件课程将进行修订，包括新的信息，使用设计工具，设计自动化理论。第一个目标是教学生如何使用设计工具，而第二个目标是教学生如何积极参与新工具的开发。最后的产品将是一套附有详细准则和设计练习的课程大纲;一套实验室手册，提供创造复杂设计和修改现有设计的练习;一套复杂设计，用作设计修改练习的范例或基础;一套高度复杂和完全集成的设计工具，将学生从一个想法的最初开始到实现;以及一套针对设计问题和设计自动化应用的新教材。研究结果将通过学术出版物、互联网新闻组和匿名FTP以及一系列夏季讲习班公布。 ***

9522265 Maurer This project is to enhance the quality of undergraduate courses by incorporating new research in hardware design, and design automation software. Three new courses will be introduced, and a fourth is being planned. Three existing undergraduate hardware courses will be revised to included new information on the use of design tools, and design automation theory. The first objective is to teach students how to use design tools, while the second is to teach students how to actively participate in the development of new tools. The final products will be a set of course outlines with detailed guidelines and design-oriented exercises; a set of laboratory manuals providing exercises in creating complex designs and making modifications to existing designs; a set of complex designs to be used either as examples or as the basis for exercises in design modifications; a set of highly sophisticated and completely integrated design tools that will carry the student from the initial inception of an idea through to its implementation; and a set of new textbooks aimed at the problems of design and the use of design automation. Results will be made available through scholarly publications, Internet newsgroups and anonymous FTP, and through a series of summer workshops. ***
