The purpose of this course is to integrate the student’s
knowledge of hardware and software in the design,
implementation, debugging and documentation of one major
system. The twin learning experience of making hardware
versus software decisions, and participating in a structured
design are integrated into the same design exercise. This is
a structured course whereby students are trained by the
course instructor to work in teams in implementing a number
of mini projects in addition to one major common project at
the end of the course.
