CURE-E Course: EECE 144 Logic Design Fundamentals, first introduced with CURE-E Fall 2023

Project Title: Design one of the functional units of a microprocessor ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) to outperform the existing ones

In this CURE-E project students are encouraged to design one of the functional units of a microprocessor ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) to outperform the existing modern ALU designs in the market. In this term-long project, students are first exposed to the fundamental digital design concepts and the state-of the-art design tools. They are then asked to design and build their own ideas. It is worth mentioning that during the implementation of this CURE-E project, students analyze and study the popular existing designs in the computer architecture literature and try either to create the improved version of them or build innovative designs from scratch. Ideas that are unique, high performance, and cost-effective will be shared with the computer architecture community.
