About the project : The project involves providing leverage the latest generation of Metavante’s Browser
environment including a simple yet powerful architecture and a robust feature/ function set of business tasks
to achieve your business objectives. The Browser version of Bankway will deliver improved operational
efficiency through simplified and integrated terminal operations, increased security and edit capabilities and
an overall better experience for your employees and customers.
Implementing this solution eliminates the requirement for a disruptive core application and operating system
platform replacement, while still taking advantage of new technologies to access the core systems from both
the front and back. This provides all the benefits of thin clients on the front -end and relational database
analysis and reporting on the back-end.
By utilizing Browser technology, Metavante has redesigned some major components of Bankway to
enhance functionality and information delivered to the banker. Browser technology is a worldwide
standard, thus providing the vehicle to deliver other emerging bank technologies as they come to market.
Over time, this ensures that CBC has the options to select the technologies that make the most sense for your
organization as your needs evolve.
With its multi-tier architecture, the system can serve as the universal front-end for CBC’s various back-end
applications. Browser is designed for speed and performance. Access to and collection of information
needed to help serve your customers quickly and more efficiently is greatly improved. Advanced graphical
and navigational capabilities enables your employees to be more effective with customer interactions by
making the information available in a format that is more appropriate to the business tasks being conducted
and easier to understand. Because it is easier to understand, your employees will spend less time searching
for information and more time serving their customer. The result is that customers will receive the utmost
convenience, where a variety of transactions can be accomplished during a single teller interaction.
Future development time is significantly reduced enabling timely deployment of new and enhanced products
and services by CBC staff.

8-bit RISC Processor
Designed various blocks of the processor. Blocks include arithmetic logic unit (ALU), control unit, and
register file and memory. All the blocks were captured in the schematic domain. Integrated all the
blocks in a data path module. Tested the functionality of the processor. The instructions were placed in
the virtual memory. Appropriate signals were generated to the control unit to read the instructions from
the memory. The instruction set for the processor was reduced and is listed in the project report. The
timing errors caused the latches to enter in the unknown state. Studied the critical paths for timing
errors and removed the bugs that caused timing problem. Mentor Graphics tool was used for this
project. The tool then generated the layout of the processor.
