`
`B. INSTRUCTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
`
`
`
`1. NSF-funded CISE Infrastructure effort, “Experimental High Performance
`Computing and Communications Systems''. (Total: $1,338,283 including $503,046 in
`matching.) Approximately $283,000 of this funding went towards outfitting the ECE
`Design Center.
`
`2. CAD Tools. Modern design is done with sosphisticated Computer – Aided Design
`Tools, not with pencil and paper. I have spent considerable effort bringing such tools
`into the Unity environment, gaining the `corporate knowledge' about how to use these
`tools effectively and obtaining additional computers for use with these tools. Students tell
`me that knowledge of these tools is highly regarded by potential employers. In fact one
`student stated that `Dr. Franzon teaches courses that gets jobs'. In addition , in 1999,
`we won the Cadence University Alliance Best Web site Awards. Through my funded
`research efforts and Corporate Donations introduced the following Computer Aided
`Design Tools into the curricula:
`
`SAMSUNG ET AL. EXHIBIT 1003
`Page 5 of 54
`
`

`
`•
`
`• Cadence Design Systems. A complete suite of over 4 GB of executables
`that facilitate chip, board and system design, with a retail value of over
`$100,000,000. Cadence donates these tools because of the widespread
`recognition of our contributions to CAD. (i.e. It waives the $5,000 fee.)
`• Synopsys. The industry leading chip (ASIC) synthesis tool,with a retail
`value of over $7,000,000.
`In 2008, NCSU won the “Babbage Award” from Sun and Synopsys, in
`recognition of our contributions towards lab infrastructure. The award comes
`in the form of $15,000 of computers.
`• Mentor. We integrate some mentor graphics tools with the other tools above.
`The tools have a retail value of over $5,000,000. Mentor donates these tools
`because of the widespread recognition of our contributions to CAD.
`• In 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 Mentor donated $30,000 to the University to
`assist in CAD infrastructure development.
`As well as obtaining these tools, my group has spent considerable effort making these
`tools useful to us by writing integration scripts and generating `know-how'. Much of this
``know-how' has been published on the Web and in our own lockers. Most of this learning
`was conducted driven by research needs and serves as an excellent example of the
`integration of research and teaching. This work is ongoing. For example, over 2000
`organizations world-wide, use our “Physical Design Kit”..
`
`3. ECE 745. ASIC Verification. I introduced this course in 2007, though it was taught by
`Meeta Yadav.
`
` 4. ECE 342, Design of Complex Digital System, Fall 1996:
`• Completely redesigned and updated course to reflect modern design practices,
`and use of modern Hardware Description Languages and Design Tools.
`• Completed a new laboratory course ECE 342L for use with this course.
`
` 5. ECE 520 ASIC Design (formerly `Fundamentals of Logic Systems'), Spring 1997:
`• Based on my teaching of ECE592B in Spring 1995, this course has been
`completely updated to reflect modern design practices, modern tools, and
`emphasize an understanding of algorithms used in modern tools. (`ASIC'
`stands for `Application Specific Integrated Circuit'. For example the chips in
`a satellite dish receiver are ASICs. ASIC engineering is the fastest growing
`area of ECE today.)
`• Once the course action forms are approved, this course will be taught concurr-
`ently with ECE 420 ASIC Design.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`6. ECE 544, Design of Electronic Packaging and Interconnects, Spring 1995. New c-
`ourse emphasizing `transmission line effects' in electronic packages and how to design
``deep sub-micron interconnect'. I receive tremendous demand from ind-
` ustry
`for graduates from this course.
`
`7. ECE 691/693A, Computer Engineering Graduate Seminar
`
`SAMSUNG ET AL. EXHIBIT 1003
`Page 6 of 54
`
`

`
`• Created new seminar course (with Dr. Tom Conte) for computer engineering
`students.
`• Recruited and scheduled weekly speakers.
