Disclaimer: This website is still under construction. (So what else is
new...? :-) ) Currently it is merely a random dump of loosely connected topics; however, hopefully
soon, this all will be woven into a grand unified website design. Until then [WHEN???], please bear
with the chaos...
Taubman Center Amateur Movie
The A. Alfred Taubman Student Services Center is
the latest addition to the LTU campus. My amateur time-lapse movie shows the construction
from almost the beginning to the day of the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on April 7,
2006; a fun little project, whose details I am glad to share.
Microprocessors Course Resources
In the ECE Department's Microprocessors course and corresponding lab, the concepts of modern
microprocessors are demonstrated through the Motorola 68000 processing unit. The primary
motivation for this decision is that the 68000's assembly language is considered by many as "The
Latin of All Assemblies", at least within the realm of CISC (Complex Instruction Set
Computer) devices. The magnificent EASy68K
68000 Assembly Language Tool includes an editor, assembler, simulator and even source-level
debugger for the development of 68000 assembly programs. The Microprocessors resources of this site
focus on the 68000 processor and the EASy68K.
Successful ABET Efforts
The LTU Electrical & Computer Engineering Department has successfully survived its Fall 2004
visit from the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.
In August 2005, ABET informed our department that both of our undergraduate programs
(Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering) got accredited until September 30, 2011! Check out the ECE Department's Continuous Process
Improvement page for more information on our ABET-related efforts.
Dr. Anneberg's ECE Logo Contest
One of the coolest grass-root initiatives at the ECE Department is Dr. Anneberg's Spring 2004 ECE Logo Contest.
Unfortunately to this day the department does not have a simple graphic identity, i.e., a
logo in a classic sense; however, should this initiative be rekindled in the future, my
designs will be at the ready... :-)
