ECE 3829-E2-L01 - Advanced Digital System Design With FPGAs
Instructor: Zainalabedin Navabi
Meeting: T-W | 1:00 PM - 3:50 PM
Format: Lecture
Cat. I
This course covers the systematic design of advanced digital systems using FPGAs. The emphasis is on top-down design starting with high level models using a hardware description language (such as VHDL or Verilog) as a tool for the design, synthesis, modeling, test bench development, and testing and verification of complete digital systems. These types of systems include the use of embedded soft core processors as well as lower level modules created from custom logic or imported IP blocks. Interfaces will be developed to access devices external to the FPGA such as memory or peripheral communication devices. The integration of tools and design methodologies will be addressed through a discussion of system on a chip (SOC) integration, methodologies, design for performance, and design for test. Topics: Hardware description languages, system modeling, synthesis, simulation and testing of digital circuits; Design integration to achieve specific system design goals including architecture, planning and integration, and testing; Use of soft core and IP modules to meet specific architecture and design goals. Laboratory exercises: Students will design and implement a complete sophisticated embedded digital system on an FPGA. HDL design of digital systems including lower level components and integration of higher level IP cores, simulating the design with test benches, and synthesizing and implementing these designs with FPGA development boards including interfacing to external devices.

Embedded computers are literally everywhere in modern life. On any given day we interact with and depend on dozens of small computers to make coffee, run cell phones, take pictures, play music play, control elevators, manage the emissions and antilock brakes in our automobile, control a home security system, and so on. Using popular everyday devices as case studies, students in this course are introduced to the unique computing and design challenges posed by embedded systems. Students will then solve real-world design problems using small, resource constrained (time/memory/power) computing platforms. The hardware and software structure of modern embedded devices and basic interactions between embedded computers and the physical world will also be covered in lecture and as part of laboratory experiments. In the laboratory, emphasis is placed on interfacing embedded processors with common sensors and devices (e.g. temperature sensors, keypads, LCD display, SPI ports, pulse width modulated motor controller outputs) while developing the skills needed to use embedded processors in systems design. This course is also appropriate for RBE and other engineering and CS students interested in learning about embedded system theory and design. Topics: Number/data representations, embedded system design using C, microprocessor and microcontroller architecture, program development and debugging tools for a small target processor, hardware/software dependencies, use of memory mapped peripherals, design of event driven software, time and resource management, applications case studies. Lab Exercises: Students will solve commonly encountered embedded processing problems to implement useful systems. Starting with a requirements list students will use the knowledge gained during the lectures to implement solutions to problems which explore topics such as user interfaces and interfacing with the physical world, logic flow, and timing and time constrained programming. Exercises will be performed on microcontroller and/or microprocessor based embedded systems using cross platform development tools appropriate to the target platform.

Meeting: R | 1:00 PM - 2:50 PM
Format: Laboratory
Cat. I
Digital circuits are the foundation upon which the computers, cell phones, and calculators we use every day are built. This course explores these foundations by using modern digital design techniques to design, implement and test digital circuits ranging in complexity from basic logic gates to state machines that perform useful functions like calculations, counting, timing, and a host of other applications. Students will learn modern design techniques, using a hardware description language (HDL) such as Verilog to design, simulate and implement logic systems consisting of basic gates, adders, multiplexers, latches, and counters. The function and operation of programmable logic devices, such as field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), will be described and discussed in terms of how an HDL logic design is mapped and implemented. Experiments involving the design of combinational and sequential circuits will provide students a hands-on introduction to basic digital electrical engineering concepts and the skills needed to gain more advanced skills. In the laboratory, students will construct, troubleshoot, and test the digital circuits that they have developed using a hardware description language. These custom logic designs will be implemented using FPGAs and validated using test equipment. Topics: Number representations, Boolean algebra, design and simplification of combinational circuits, arithmetic circuits, analysis and design of sequential circuits, and synchronous state machines. Lab exercises: Design, analysis and construction of combinational and sequential circuits; use of hardware description languages to implement, test, and verify digital circuits; function and operation of FPGAs.

Instructor: Esther Boucher-Yip
Format: Lecture
Cat. III This course will provide students participating in a HUA Project Center with a framework for investigating a particular cultural site, and to define a unique set of humanities and arts learning goals through experiential learning. Experiential learning means learning from experience or learning by doing. Experiential education immerses learners in an experience and then encourages reflection about the experience to develop new skills, new attitudes, or new ways of thinking. This course is structured in a self-directed manner in which students select a humanities/arts topic or theme, explore and experience arts and cultural sites related to that theme, then engage in self-reflection and self-evaluation of their learning.

PSY 1402-E2-01 - Social Psychology
Instructor: Gia Davis
Format: Lecture
Cat. I
Social psychology is concerned with how people think about, feel for, and act
toward other people. Social psychologists study how people interact by focusing
on the individual (not society as a whole) as the unit of analysis, by emphasizing
the effect on the individual of the situation or circumstances in which behavior
occurs, and by acquiring knowledge through empirical scientific investigation.
This course will examine the cause of human behavior in a variety of domains of
social life. Topics will include, but not be limited to, person perception, attitude
formation and change, interpersonal attraction, stereotyping and prejudice, and
small group behavior. Special attention will be given to applied topics: How can
the research methods of social psychology be used to help solve social problems?
Students will work together in small groups to explore in depth topics in social
psychology of their own choosing.
Suggested background: PSY 1400.

HI 2400-E1-01 - Topics In Environmental History
Instructor: Joseph Cullon
Meeting: T-R | 12:00 PM - 1:50 PM
Format: Lecture
Cat. I
This course surveys the methods and sources that historians adopt to answer three questions central to environmental history: How have constantly changing natural environments shaped the patterns of human life in different regions? How have different human cultures perceived and attached meanings to the natural and built worlds around them, and how have those attitudes shaped their social, economic political, and cultural lives? Finally, how have people altered the world around them, and what have been the consequences of change for natural and human communities alike? Sections will vary in content and emphases alternating between North American, regional, or global approaches. This course may be repeated for different topics. No prior coursework or background in environmental history is required.

HU 2901-E1-01 - Topics in Sexuality and LGBTQ+ Studies: Women in Humanities
Instructor: Ingrid Matos-Nin
Meeting: M-R | 10:00 AM - 11:50 AM
Format: Lecture
This course uses interdisciplinary, thematic, and case study approaches to explore sexuality in
the modern world. It takes as its starting point the understanding that sex and power are
interrelated and that they manifest differently in different social and cultural contexts (including
spaces and places to which WPI students may travel as part of their global projects experience).
Further, this course recognizes that the categorization, experiences, and treatment of queer
persons and bodies and non-normative sexuality have changed over time and space, as have
sexual mores and conceptualizations of “purity” and “deviance,” which are linked to class, race,
dis/ability, and power relations within and between states. This course may include the study of
the history of sexuality in the United States and globally; national and international activism
around sexual liberation and LGBTQ+ pride; religion and sexuality; the relationship of LGBTQ+
activism to other civil rights movements; sex work; sexual violence; cultural representations of
queer and non-normative sexualities, and “anti-genderism” and authoritarian populism. This course may be repeated for different topics.
