A CAD tool, MOSGRAD, that can be used to simulate the effects of distributed two-dimensional systematic and random variations in device parameters on the performance of matchingcritical circuits has been developed. In addition to applications for layouts with conventional rectangular transistors, this tool can predict the performance of non-conventional circuit structures in which multiple drai...

How to introduce computer-assisted design (CAD) as a representational tool of the trade in the classroom? This paper deals with the tension between the authenticity of designbased learning situations that is often strived at and the inherent complexity of the design process and CAD as a representational tool of the trade. We describe a three-dimensional framework for comparing innovative projec...

TechViz has been a supporter of Formula Student at KIT for several years reflecting the companys long-term commitment to enhance engineering and education by providing students with powerful VR system software to connect curriculum to real-world applications. Incorporating immersive visualisation and interaction environment into Formula Student vehicle design is proven to deliver race day succe...

In electric generat ion plants , facility administration is going to be computerized for s e c u r e and efficient maintenance, a n d i t is needed t o input many a l ready existing plant diagrams (so called piping & ins t rument diagrams) into computer systems. Then i t i s required to recognize plant diagrams, whose drawing quality is s o tough f o r recognition, t h a t t h e drawn elements,...

The design of knitted garments is an activity shared by knitwear designers (who are almost all young and female) and knitting machine technicians (who are almost all male and usually older). The process involves programming knitting machines using CAD systems, which are designed for and used by the technicians. The designers get much less training and access to the CAD systems than they want. T...

In this paper, the authors utilize spatial visualization of automotive function architectures to enable novel, improved methodologies and workflows for the development, validation and service of vehicle functions. The authors build upon a prior approach for consistent data integration of automotive function architectures with CAD models. They show the benefits of the proposed novel methodologie...
