Designing an Evolving System-on-Chip (SoC) Laboratory Justin S. Davis Mississippi State UniversityAbstractIn the digital age, information is very easily accessible. This creates many problems forthe traditional classroom which uses the same exam questions and lab assignments fromone semester to the next. Instead of fighting the flow of information (which industry hasfound to be exceptionally hard), the learning environment must adapt to not only toleratethis, but use it to further educate. We have redesigned our digital systems design courseto incorporate these changes.In traditional digital systems design, silicon chips from different manufacturers arebrought

Expose students to developing creative, innovative solutions to engineering problems: Limited materials, time and equipment and appropriate technology considerations require the students to develop creative and innovative solutions to the problem(s) during their service-learning internship. 7. Enhance the ability of students to function effectively on engineering and interdisciplinary teams: Preparatory workshops, especially the cultural immersion workshops, include team-based activities. Participants in the cultural immersion workshops are from a variety of majors and engineering disciplines. In most service- placements, the students work on projects that involve

about 10 kN was used for this test. A minimumof three tests are carried out for each test. The speed of the penetrator is 0.2 mm/s, but the speedis reduced to lower the limit in order to more accurately determine the end point. The preferredmethod for determining is by the drop-in load on the specimen. In general this indicates the onsetof necking in the dome. Since the size of the test specimen in the present case is very small,sufficient care is taken to determine the end point.

economists frequently treat all GLDs as OI, but there are situations in whichthe GLD becomes a capital gain or loss (CGL). If a firm is a corporation, then the error intro-duced by treating a GLD as OI will be seen to be either non-existent or minimal, but this mightnot be the case for engineering firms operating as sole proprietorships, Sub-chapter S corpora-tions, limited liability corporations, or partnerships. These organizations are called pass-throughentities since their revenues and expenses and gains and losses are passed through to the ownersor partners who pay taxes on them as individuals. Computing the tax effect of GLDs requires determining the type of asset disposed, theholding period of the asset, the character of the GLD, and
