AC 2007-2381: FACTORS FOR AN EFFECTIVE LSAMP REULeo McAfee, University of Michigan Leo C. McAfee received the BS degree from Prairie View A&M University, Prairie View, TX, in 1966, and the MSE and PhD degrees from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, in 1967 and 1970, respectively, all degrees in Electrical Engineering. He joined the University of Michigan in 1971 and is currently an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. He has had summer and leave positions at General Motors Research Laboratories, IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, AT&T Bell Laboratories, and Telecom Analysis Systems. He has held leadership positions for curriculum and degree
that would work together in a system toaccomplish the required task and meet performance requirements at the design operating point.In this data acquisition and monitoring scheme, the decision to select particular components forthe overall system was considered with high importance to avoid system failures. Relevant andcompetent system modules will be more efficient and save sufficient money over the life of thesystem to avoid the additional expense and time.The teaching of the design and implementation of energy systems and the use of data acquisitionand monitoring scheme allow the students to consider alternative equipment selections andprogramming interfaces. The utilization of data acquisition system allows the students or systemdesigners
to solve such problems, and the processes used to solve theproblems. Thus, the goals of this project are to provide: • an intensive research experience for U.S. students working with partners at IIT Page 13.1301.3 Madras, a premier engineering institute in India , • experience in working as members of an international team for both the U.S. and IIT students, 2 • industrial research experience for the U.S. students working in industry research laboratories (Larsen and Toubro, Limited and

introducingstudents to V. Nabokov (1899-1977), Leonardo (1452-1519), Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), and A. Borodin (1833-1887), the class effectively provides mentors for the Renaissanceengineer. It further demonstrates the power of "speaking two languages" and the inventivenessthat can emanate from a deep understanding of two fields. This inventiveness manifests itself inNabokov’s literary and scientific design, Leonardo’s pioneering work in comparative anatomy,Bach’s invention of new instruments with desired acoustical properties, and Borodin’s ability tojuggle his work in music composition and the laboratory, while publishing in both fields andchampioning women’s educational rights. He also invented at the interface of medicine andchemistry.The

A total of 91 students were surveyed atCC, all from the Introduction to Engineering (ENGR 1020) course. CC students are composed ofa mix of traditional and non-traditional students from various backgrounds. Many students are inthe first year of their engineering study, but many have other degrees or have pursued studies inother areas prior to joining the engineering department. At CC, students took the survey on paperafter a lecture and discussion on engineering ethics, without the instructor present.

Peer-peerenvironments have also resulted in higher quality and more meaningful feedback fromcollaborative team peer reviews as compared to individual peer reviews in design [6], a deeperunderstanding of the design processes [7], and building trust as well as improving outcomeswhen utilizing calibrated peer review in engineering design [8].

Many pedagogical OSs have been developed to teach OS courses through hands-on labexercises. Several universities have developed lab assignments using them for OS design concepts.However, little efforts have been made towards the development of security-related labs in the OScourses. Although few independent projects have been found that will be discussed in the relatedworks section, they do not offer proper documentation or their implementation is quite naivecompared to production-level OS.
