3.00 Credits
This is a project-oriented course on digital VLSI design. The course material focuses on bottom-up design of digital integrated circuits, starting from CMOS transistors, CMOS inverters, combinational circuits and sequential logic designs. Important design aspect of digital integrated circuits such as propagation delay, noise margins and power dissipation are covered in the class, and design challenges in submicron technology are addressed. The students design combinational and sequential circuits at various levels of abstraction using state-of-the-art CAD environment provided by Cadence Design Systems. The goal of the class is to design a microprocessor in 0.5 micron technology that can be fabricated by a semiconductor foundry. Prerequisites: CSE 260 and ESE 232.

3.00 Credits
Design and characterization of digital circuits, reliable and predictable interconnection of digital devices, and information transfer over busses and other connections. Topics include: review of MOSFET operation; CMOS logic gate electrical characteristics; system and single-point noise margin and noise budgets; figures of merit for noise-margin and power-delay product, and trade-off between noise margin and propagation delay; Transmission-line driving including reflection, termination, nonzero transition time, lumped and distributed capacitance loads, nonlinear terminations, and applicable conditions for lumped approximations; coupled transmission lines, forward and backward crosstalk, short line approximations, ground bounce, and simultaneous switching noise; timing, clocking, and clock distribution for digital circuits; prediction of metastability error rates and design for acceptable probability of failure. Examples and design exercises using systems and interconnections selected from current Computer Engineering practice such as RAMBUS, PCI bus, GTL, LVDS, and others. Prerequisites: ESE 232 and CSE 362M.

3.00 Credits
Introduces the issues, challenges, and methods for designing embedded computing systems-systems designed to serve a particular application, which incorporate the use of digital processing devices. Examples of embedded systems include PDAs, cellular phones, appliances, game consoles, automobiles, and iPod. Emphasis is given to aspects of design that are distinct to embedded systems. The course examines hardware, software, and system-level design. Hardware topics include microcontrollers, digital signal processors, memory hierarchy, and I/O. Software issues include languages, run-time environments, and program analysis. System-level topics include real-time operating systems, scheduling, power management, and wireless sensor networks. Students perform a course project on a real wireless sensor network testbed. Prerequisites: CSE 361S.

A broad overview of computer networking. Topics include protocol layers, application layer protocols, HTTP, FTP, SMTP, domain name system (DNS), peer to peer (P2P) networking, transport layer design issues, universal datagram protocol (UDP), transmission control protocol (TCP), TCP congestion control, network layer, IP4, ICMP, IPV6, Ethernet, routing algorithms, internet routing protocols: OSPF, RIP, BGP, link layer, error correction, VLANS, PPP, MPLS, wireless and mobile networks, WiFi 802.11, Bluetooth, WiMAX, cellular wireless networks, mobile IP, cellular mobility, security in computer networks, IPSec, network management, and multimedia networking. Prerequisite: CSE 241.
-
3.00 Credits
Implementation of a substantive project on an individual basis, involving one or more major areas in computer science. Problems pursued under this framework may be predominantly analytical, involving exploration and extension of theoretical structures, or may pivot around the design/development of solutions for particular applications drawn from areas throughout the University and/or community. In either case, the project serves as a focal point for crystallizing the concepts, techniques, and methodologies encountered throughout the curriculum. Students intending to take CSE 497-498 must submit a project proposal for approval by the department during the spring semester of the junior year. Prerequisite: senior standing.
