An interactive video course in multidisciplinary and collaborative design for systems on a chip

Abstract

In 2002 it is estimated that circuits will have a complexity of 150 million transistors and require as many as 1,000 design engineers. As a result, technology is mandating the need both for collaborative design and for multidisciplinary design skills. We describe here a video course taught in Fall 2000 and focusing on developing both multidisciplinary design and collaborative skills.
