Dept. of Electronics & ECE
Indian Institute of Technology-Kharagpur
First R & D Centre in
Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
Development among IITs and Universities in India
PI: Prof. C. K Maiti, Co-PI: Prof A. S Dhar, and Prof A. Halder
Research & Development focus
1. To develop e-learning materials for VLSI Engineering
Course (including tutorial and laboratory modules) for
undergraduate students and implement VLSI
Engineering online laboratory — real time laboratory
accessed through the Internet which can expand the
range of experiments in VLSI engineering, transmit
online instructions and study materials for anyone,
anywhere and anytime.
2. The development of an integrated teaching
environment which allows for the provision of online
live lecture (a 50-lecture module with tutorials) and
laboratory
(10-12 experiments) sessions for
geographically dispersed students.
Steps for
Development of RealTIME Measurement-based
Internet Laboratory
