Miscellaneous tools, experiments and software techniques typical for preparation towards Dual Degree Project of Microelectronics branch students.
The course consists of several intermediate level short modules with topics typically including the following:  Data and Function Fitting, Parameter Extraction, General Computational Concepts in Circuit Simulation, Monte Carlo Simulation, Simulated Annealing, Matrix Solvers, Data Analysis
and Interpretation (scanning/parsing/interpretation).
The course projects would focus on providing exposure to special laboratory equipment and software environment of use during DDP through tasks designed by the project supervisors or the course instructors.
