| Research Abstract |
This project aims to develop curriculums and teaching materials for education of VLSI system design in universities, which should be arranged by the own hands of educational organizations. Since 1997, VDEC (VLSI design and education center of University of Tokyo) started their regular services of chip implementation and distribution of CAD tools for Japanese universities. Corresponding to the activities of VDEC,we pursued the development of design environment for VDEC users, test run for the new service of VDEC and implementation of education curriculums using services of VDEC.
We have developed two sets of cell libraries for VDEC under the cooperation of Kyushu Univ., Kyoto Univ.and Waseda Univ.In order to verify the cell libraries, we designed several VLSI chips using the libraries. We also design other chips for establishing a newly introduced process and LPGA's. The designs were done in the following universities : Tokyo, Kyoto, Waseda, Kyushu, Hiroshima City, Kyushu Institute of Technologies, Tohohashi, Osaka, and Keio. The libraries will open for all VDEC users from 1998.
Based on the above experiences of chip designs, we have developed curriculums of VLSI system design education. The curriculums are applied to classes in some universities. We also reviewed a textbook for VLSI design using VDEC service and made tutorial courses of usage of the libraries developed in this project. Several teaching materials including educational microprecessor boards, simulators and CAE tools have implemented and opened for public through WWW.
