EduCAD - an Efficient, Flexible and Easily Revisable Physical Design Tool for Educational Purposes
Tool Name (abbreviation):
EduCAD
Education of physical design algorithms is very problematic due to the sophisticated structure of physical design tools and algorithms. In this article, we presented an Educational VLSI-CAD tool (EduCAD) that provides a simple and easy to change framework to learn and evaluate the physical design algorithms for educational and research applications. Utilizing the EduCAD for the graduate course “VLSI-CAD algorithms” in Shahid Beheshti University shows that the expertise of students on physical design algorithms has improved considerably.
