derived from the designated time interval. For example, theincrement amount in state_atk is (A1- 0) / Ta and the decrement amount in state_dcy is(A1 – A2 ) / Td. The counter is cleared to 0 initially. When the FSM is triggered, it entersstate_atk and the counter increments with (A1- 0) / Ta every clock cycle The FSM stays instate_atk until the counter reaches A1. It then moves to state_dcy and the counter decrementswith (A1 – A2 ) / Td . When the counter reaches A2, the FSM moves to state_sus and the counterdecrements with (A2 – A3 ) / Ts. The same activity is repeated until the FSM completes state_rel.As the FSM progresses, the counter continues incrementing or decrementing a specific amount.The counter output corresponds to the envelope contour

Initially, thislack of constraints may have been a blessing (for the students) since it did free the design processto vary these factors. However, later, it became clear that the price for such a freedom is dealingwith the lack of starting points/values in the process.

. Recently, Baylor University has increased itsemphasis on faculty research. The current curriculum does not prepare students tosupport the research initiatives until they graduate. This has prompted a series ofdiscussions about shifting the lab experience to the fall semester of the junior year. In thespring of the junior year the students would then be better prepared when taking thematerials lab course. A one credit hour fluids/thermo lab would occur in the fall of thesenior year leaving the spring semester of the senior year to take the capstone designcourse. Schedule changes are being considered and course development is underwaywith possible implementation in three years. ConclusionThis paper has
