Members of
Silicon Mentor realise the importance of Mini and Major project that a M.tech
student has to undertake and complete to comply as a curriculum pre-requisite.
It specially has more significance for M.tech students or PhD students as they
need to present a feasible study and simulation results on new design strategy
adopted along with performance parameter analysis to substantiate their
strategy.
This is how we at
Silicon Mentor guide and help students in executing such research projects:
·
Discussion
with candidate on sub-domain and subject matter;
·
Selecting
a IEEE based topic and explaining the candidate of the underlying concept and
exact identification of the problem statement;
·
Assisting
synopsis preparation and verifying that it is aligned with problem statement
and mentioning the logic that will be adopted to overcome the problem;
·
Searching
the closest base paper and other closest prior art through research databases
and other technical forums ,such as, IEEE, Research gate, Scribd , to name few
and assisting students in chalking out the design strategy;
·
Periodic
checking on the WPR (Weekly Progress Report) and the presentations indicating
the project implantation flow;
·
Project
Training on required tool so that the student can simulate and prove the base
paper and study the dependency of circuit or its equivalent functional model on
different parameters;
·
Deriving
the student out of his comfort zone to develop out of the box thinking while
resolving problems abstract as well as tangible, encountered during project
execution;
·
Nourishing
the ideas of the student and channelizing the ideas to obtain final results
(complete the research).
Though
we have started recently, we have made quick and innovative strides as in
guiding 60 graduate and post graduate research students in sub micron layout,
pre-silicon characterisation as part of their research projects in compliance
with curriculum requisites, trained more than 45 students in basics and
advanced methodologies and tools of VLSI and associated domains.
