Abstract :
Global competition is forcing universities to rethink their approach to undergraduate education. Advanced hardware and software tools make it possible for students to grasp fundamental engineering concepts quicker, ultimately enhancing the undergraduate educational experience. The article highlights the roles played by software in DSP education, including symbolic and numeric processing as well as high-level programming of DSPs. The authors include a survey of some of the more popular software environments and identify important logistical issues
