XTutor. CLient- and server-side software to support an on-line interactive learning environment, funded by iCampus and the D'Arbeloff Program for Academic Excellence. Includes developing a system-independent XML-based framework for writing and annotating interactive educational content to be delivered as a client-side “workbook”.

Research Director of the T-Party project, a 5-year $20MM research collaboration with Quanta Computer, Inc. focused on the future of mobile information technology.

Computation Structures (6.004). One of the four courses in the EECS core, 6.004 introduces the architecture of digital systems, emphasizing structural principles common to a wide range of technologies.



Introductory Digital Systems Laboratory (6.111). A hands-on introduction to current implementation techniques for digital systems, leading to a final project of the student's choice.

Past projects

Interactive Learning Environment. An integrated set of Java-based CAD tools supporting hierarchical schematic entry, simulation and (soon) full custom layout, all accessible from the Web.

Curl. Curl is a new language for creating web documents with almost any sort of content, from simple formatted text to complex interactive applets.

Introduction to VLSI Systems (6.371). An introductory graduate-level course providing a hands-on introduction to the design and implementation of large-scale digital systems in CMOS VLSI.
