Abstract :
The Electronic Design Education Consortium (EDEC) is dedicated to the production of computer-based teaching and learning material to support the education of electronic engineers and computer scientists. Eight universities are collaborating in the production of the courseware which has been grouped into four major theme areas, namely, electronic circuit design, digital design, system and high level design and testing and design for test. The Institution of Electrical Engineers is also a member of the Consortium. Over the three year duration of the project it is hoped to develop 160 hours of courseware to be, where ever possible, closely integrated with the industry-standard electronic CAD software available under the ECAD and EUROCHIP initiatives
