 Objectives to target: This relates to asking ‘Where to go?’, whereas Tools and Strategies below relate to ‘How to get there?’ Breeding objectives describe the type of animal that we might want to develop, or, more commonly, describe the utility of marginal genetic changes in each trait of commercial value. However, there is increasing concern about loss of genetic diversity, both within and b...

The Ergo Attribute System was designed to satisfy the requirements for attributes in a languagegeneric program derivation environment. It consists of three components: (1) an abstract data type of attributes that guarantees attribute consistency, (2) a Common Lisp implementation which combines demand-driven and incremental attribute evaluation in a novel way while allowing for attribute persist...

We describe our experiences in using microelectronic design projects as cooperative education experiences for electrical engineering majors. We discuss funding of the necessary VLSI design laboratory and describe our course offerings. We believe our “alternative co-op” program is of value to VLSI educators with limited resources who are looking for ways to provide students with an alternative t...
