ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER ENGINEERING

> Communication System > Networking Attached is a Fictitious project that I need to a networking solution. Please let me know if you can help with my project. Please see the text below for the question (in case if the attachment is not working.) SELL-DIRECT CORPORATION Sell-Direct Products, Inc. representatives are being modernized. In addition to carrying sample medical equipment in their hospital visits, sales representatives now seek to dial-in remotely on their sales trips to radically reduce paper from the ordering process. After the order data is sent, the system will send error messages and confirm the order. The salesperson would then upload the data to Sell-Direct’s host computer on-site. Sell-Direct’s 45 salespeople are intended users of the system, with top sellers being offered the new system first. Right now, sales reps prepare a paper-based purchase order on a booklet-length form. They then mail or fax the purchase order to their local Sell-Direct branch, where it is scanned into the network and processed. The new system will eliminate the mailing entirely and allows sales representatives to sell for two or three more days in a two-week sales cycle, rather than stopping early to file the written orders. Sell-Direct needs a quick turnaround and an answer to their problems. There are approximately 40 orders sent in per day by each salesperson. Each sales order is about 250KB large on average. In the main office there are 25 users of scattered PCs connected to a Windows NT LAN running 10BaseT over Category 3 twisted pair. They are unhappy with the NT-based LAN and want to upgrade both the network and the RDBMS being used-namely Access 2.0. There is only one server-a Dell PIII-800Mhz Server with a 100GB drive, whose limits and capacity are close to being reached. The departments at Sell-Direct are Marketing/Sales, Personnel, Accounting/Finance, MIS, and Operations/Purchasing. None of the current 25 PCs will be retained as they are mainly Pentium III-333s. They also have no retail value. Of the 25 users, 3 are managers. In addition, Sell-Direct has four new branch offices with 22 employees each in DC, Newark, Silver Spring, and Boston, MA (the main office is in Philadelphia). There are 2 managers at each site, but there are no PCs yet at these recently-created branch locations. All branches should be fully computerized within a budget of $700,000. An extra $90,000 is available for automating the sales reps. One imperative of the design is to provide a data mart for each location to enable managers to perform sales and market analysis for their location sales. Philadelphia should be able to perform enterprise-wide analyses (not just local), therefore a comprehensive warehouse/mart architecture should be designed. Finally, Sell-Direct wants a new website to allow medical personnel customers to order online from the company. Development costs cannot be passed onto the MIS department of Sell Direct (assume web expertise is lacking), it must be paid for out of the project budget. Any new cabling must also be paid for out of the budget. You are also not allowed to increase your budget by firing people or selling equipment. Assume the equipment has no resale value. WAN costs for leased lines etc. must be paid for out of the budget for one profile of the organization you will be dealing with is given above. It describes the general requirements analysis for the problem faced by the organization, as well as the organization’s major objectives and strategies. 1. Propose the computing and data communications elements needed to satisfy the system requirements defined in the given case. You must specify the criteria for evaluating the hardware, software and data communications requirements of your system. Describe your proposed configuration in terms of: (a) Client and Server profiles-type, numbers, and configuration. (b) Network Operating System (NOS) components for clients and servers. (c) Topologies and protocols used in the system. Map these against the OSI reference model. The software used for transaction processing. The data warehouse architecture used for analyses and managerial reporting at local and enterprise levels. (e) The data communications devices used in the network, such as hubs, routers, switches etc. (f) The hardware and software used for dial-in access by remote users. (g) The type, protocol, and format of the system’s Wide Area Network and the types of devices used. The structure of the system’s database and DBMS-clarifying whether the system has a centralized or distributed database. The new website’s development and structure. 2. Show your comprehensive system budget. 3. Perform a thorough cost-benefit analysis of your system. All intangible benefits must be quantified.

ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER ENGINEERING

ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER ENGINEERING

You are a starting engineer in a new firm called WA*Technolgy Inc. This firm is in the business of designing integrated circuits (IC) modules for various consumer products such as, low power hand held devices, PDA, cell phones, etc. Your first task is to design a 4-bit arithmetic logic unit (ALU) core that will be part of the IC to control a new color touch pad display. In order to make the hand held device compete head-on with larger competitors, the management is under heavy pressure to add as much functionality as possible to the display control chip. The performance of the chip will be rated based on the number of transistors used, the area of the layout, operating speed and the power consumption. If successful, your core ALU layout design will be incorporated into other designs of the firm, as well. So it is also important to document your design in a professional manner.

4-bit ALU Specifications:

Using Tanner tools, design, simulate and verify the operation of an ALU integrated circuit shown in the following block diagram:

This circuit accepts two 4-bit operand inputs, A[3:0] and B[3:0], and generates a 4-bit output R[3:0] (8-bit – R[7:0] in the case of multiplication and parity checks – see Table below). The relationship between operand input vectors (A[4:0], B[4:0]) and the output vector (R[7:0], C, V)+, in which C and V are 1-bit status signals, is defined by the 3-bit control input S[2:0]. The table below defines the behavior of the ALU based on the positive-logic assumption.

+ C: arithmetic carry or borrow bit, V: arithmetic overflow bit.

S2    S1    S0    R    Comments    C    V
0    0    0    A plus B    Add A and B    0/1*    0/1
0    0    1    A minus B    Subtract B from A**    0/1    0/1
0    1    0    Left B    Left shift B by one bit and put 0 in the rightmost bit    0    0
0    1    1    0 minus A    Negate A**    0    0
1    0    0    0 minus B    Negate B**    0    0
1    0    1    Abs(A-B)    ?A-B?    0/1    0/1
1    1    0    AxB    A multiply B ***    0    0
1    1    1    Min A, B    Select minimum    0    0

* 0/1 means the value depends on the result.
** Two’s complement
*** Use R7-R4 in addition to R3-R0

Other Design Rules:

1.    The design must be able to operate at a 10MHz clock and 5V-power source. At this stage you are not responsible for the design of the clock.

2.    The design documentation is an essential part of the project. No design is acceptable unless accompanied by a detailed professional engineering documentation.

3.    Each engineer will make a brief 15-minute professional presentation to highlight the important features of their design.

Note : you must follow all instructions carefully the project consist of 2 main parts
1- schematic 2- layout , first you must design the 8 function see the table above(see attached 8 functions) each function for example absolute has schematic, icon, layout (see the attached final project for other project Vending machine just to help you with the design) after you finish the whole functions you must gathered in one Schematic(Whole schematic) and from the final Schematic you will design the Layout and make sure to use Eclectic software(see the attached Electric software) to design the project NO chance to use other software and without any coding to get the output use electric TOOLS.
