This paper describes an interdisciplinary project for a freshman course designed for electrical engineering, computerengineering, and computerscience majors. The project uses LEGO building sets and a microcontroller in the design, implementation, and documentation of a sequence of increasingly complex tasks. Students learn interdisciplinary team skills, and are introduced to computer hardware concepts and the C programming language. Project tasks, costs, and suggested equipment are discussed in detail.

This paper describes the development of a new software engineering curriculum at the University of Alabama. This curriculum is jointly administered by three separate academic programs: computerengineering, computerscience and management information systems. These programs have combined to develop a unified software engineering track, consisting of an optional sequence of courses for majors in the three programs. Our software engineering track is characterized by two key elements: the use of software component engineering as a technical foundation, and the integration of students from the three participating programs into a single capstone laboratory. The capstone laboratory involves the development of a multifaceted product, requiring the interdisciplinary cooperation of all three groups of students to complete. This paper describes the design and conceptual foundations of this program, which has received funding from the National science Foundation.

engineering educators have always been concerned with teaching good methodology so that students learn how to efficiently approach problems in design, analysis, and manufacturing. But the definition of "good methodology" has changed with the advent in engineering of computer-aided design (CAD). Curriculums need to be updated so that students learn methods appropriate for the environments in which they will work. Though interest in incorporating computer aids into courses is high, a number of challenges are encountered in implementing such changes. Teaching CAD tools takes time;what can be left out of courses to make room? Required computing resources are costly to acquire and to maintain. Faculty members, especially those having less computer sophistication, are sometimes hesitant to take on the additional burden of making their classes dependent on CAD. Several years ago, the circuits and computer hardware courses at the University of Michigan's Department of Electrical engineering and computerscience were restructured. A uniform set of electronic design automation (EDA) tools was incorporated, beginning early in the undergraduate curriculum. The ability to teach good engineering in the Department has been significantly strengthened by these changes. This article describes the program and the details which have made it successful. They include: using a consistent set of well-supported commercial tools throughout the curriculum;providing adequate computing resources through a tuition surcharge for engineering students;and offering department-wide support through CAD short courses and consulting hours.

Anomaly detection(AD) has been extensively studied and applied across various scenarios in recent years. However, gaps remain between the current performance and the desired recognition accuracy required for practical *** paper analyzes two fundamental failure cases in the baseline AD model and identifies key reasons that limit the recognition accuracy of existing approaches. Specifically, by Case-1, we found that the main reason detrimental to current AD methods is that the inputs to the recovery model contain a large number of detailed features to be recovered, which leads to the normal/abnormal area has not/has been recovered into its original state. By Case-2, we surprisingly found that the abnormal area that cannot be recognized in image-level representations can be easily recognized in the feature-level representation. Based on the above observations, we propose a novel recover-then-discriminate(ReDi) framework for *** takes a self-generated feature map(e.g., histogram of oriented gradients) and a selected prompted image as explicit input information to address the identified in Case-1. Additionally, a feature-level discriminative network is introduced to amplify abnormal differences between the recovered and input representations. Extensive experiments on two widely used yet challenging AD datasets demonstrate that ReDi achieves state-of-the-art recognition accuracy.
