What is Computer Science Is the Proper Home for Digital Hardware Design about?
TEACH HARDWARE ? Digital hardware programs are slowly gainin g popularity in computer science departments . They deserve far wider acceptance, especially in view o f the increasing availability of inexpensive components . Computer scientists need to recapture thei r destiny . It is curious that we are forced to stud y and live with computers that we do not design . No t only do we not control the designs, they ar e created by engineers who are more or less ignoran t of the principles of computer science . Contrast this with the early days of computin g where most designs were conceived in academic surroundings (ENIAC, ILLIAC, etc .) . After one or tw o computers were built, most universities gave u p because of the sheer magnitude of the engineerin g involved . Thus, it was natural for industry t o pick up development since by its very nature it i s adapted to production, marketing and managing complex engineering jobs . It is no longer an arduous task to build a computer . Modern MSI (medium scale integration ) and LSI (large scale integration) integrated circuits have simplified the process perhaps by a factor of one hundred . This makes it possibl e for universities to once agai
