Hands-On Experiment Platform to Study the Power and Thermal Characteristics of Digital Systems Pong P. Chu Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Cleveland State University, Cleveland, OH 44115, US1. Introduction When a semiconductor device operates, it consumes energy and generates heat. The powerconsumption is a key issue in today’s digital system design. In a CMOS transistor, the dynamicpower is related to the charging and discharging of the load capacitance at the gate output and isproportional to the switching frequency. The power consumption of a large digital system,which contains millions or even

The initial results of this effort indicate that fewerstudents enrolled in calculus their first semester (with more starting off in precalculus) and thewithdrawal rate for both calculus 1 and precalculus have dropped significantly. Shockingly,this project was taken on without analyzing student data beforehand (other than the examina-tion of success rates).Research Questions 1) Does placement exam score, academic level, gender, whether the student is a STEM (Science Technology Engineering or Math) major, and the number of times the student attended tutoring during the semester affect student scores in calculus in college? 2) Does a student’s anxiety of math correlate with
