Abstract :
Generous EDA university programs enable students to have the best of class tools in every phase of a digital systems design flow. Remote access technologies can free students from the captivity of a single dedicated CAD laboratory. This paper describes how one large Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) department is exploiting both of these opportunities.
