would like you to indicate which tutorial you would like to take
part in:
[ ] 1 [ ] 2 [ ] 3 [ ] 4 [ ] 5
Tutorials
[1] Enhanced
Tools for Simulation of Telecommunications Networks; Needs and
Trends
Petre Dini, CRIM, Montreal, Canada
[2] Field
Programmable Digital Circuit Design and Simulation
deals with Field Programmable Logic (FPL), a term which is
well known inside the world of digital systems design. To prove
this, the tutorial performs an introduction into the architecture
of FPLs as well as into high level description and simulation
languages, e.g. VHDL, which is capable of describing any digital
system, basically not limited to binary systems. The tutorial
includes theoretical background, language definition and case
study examples based on system simulation. The focus is set on
two aims: introducing the event driven simulation methodology and
using the FPLs as simulation accelerators istself. Course
material will be available on a CD-ROM at a reasonable price,
sold at the tutorial side and during the conference, including
text & schematics, design and simulation tools, VHDL
compiler, case study examples. D.P.F.Moeller and C.Siemers,
University of Clausthal, Clausthal, Germany
