Schematic diagram editor and simulator on reliability and diagnostics of computer systems

A short analysis of the most popular types of tools for digital logic design is presented. The paper describes the design and implementation of software tools that could be used to teach students within the course "Reliability and Diagnostics of Computer Systems". The design process is considered and visually represented using UML diagrams. The implemented tools are suitable for practical workshops, as well as for self-training and self-testing about error-detecting codes as parity check code, Hamming code, etc. Graphical user interfaces and main functions of the developed tools are also discussed.
