Abstract :
This paper describes the restructuring of VLSI education at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). Changing needs of industry, advances in technology and design methodology has required a significant reorganization of VLSI education with combined emphasis on system issues and associated physical constraints. We present here a course structure which will address, in parallel fashion, the key design issues for future system products
