12.490.2Rather than researching new cryptographic algorithms, our students focus on evaluatingcryptographic implementations in the context of particular enterprise security goal(s). Inthese evaluations, our students draw on existing standards and standard organizationssuch as the Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules (FIPS-140) [2] and theNational Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST). A look at sample learning goalsfor our laboratory module’s will help illustrate this.Sample Module GoalsAt the end of this class, students will be able to:1. Apply cryptographic services to: a. Conceal information within a file (encryption). b. Verify a file’s integrity c. Authenticate a file’s origin2. Provide evidence of non

engineering; they allow very fast updates, they are easy to access, they do not require thebulk of paper, they are easily searchable, and they allow multiple/alternate sources. So, this begsthe question, why are there so few electronic books in use in higher education? In part, this isbecause many of the commercial books are not available electronically. Although some publishersare exploring ways to make their collections available electronically these efforts are still in theirinfancy.However, a larger puzzle is in the step away from paper to purely electronic media. For example,consider the following problems. How do you write notes or slip a page into a fixed PDF file? Isthe document you are viewing on your machine or on the network? Who can

the requirements of 30 credit hours of core courses common to allcomputer science students. The students continue taking core courses until the first semester oftheir junior year, when they begin taking their electives from different specialization areas.In this paper, the authors are proposing a new area of specialization in their computer sciencedepartment called Embedded Systems Engineering. The paper elaborates the detail content ofthe curriculum requirement for this track.Embedded Systems EngineeringThe area of Embedded Systems Design has been gaining a tremendous growth in recent years. Amajor aspect of this growth has been the addition of networking technologies and operatingsystems to embedded systems. Embedded systems have
