Get in touch with Professor Ron Williams at the University of Vermont  
(williams@uvm-gen.emba.uvm.edu).  He published a paper on this topic about
a year and a half ago in the IEEE Trans. on Education.

The 0.4 release of Ptolemy is now available.

Ptolemy provides a highly flexible foundation for the specification,
simulation, and rapid prototyping of systems.  It is an object
oriented framework within which diverse models of computation can
co-exist and interact.  For example, using Ptolemy a data-flow
system can be easily connected to a hardware simulator which in turn
may be connected to a discrete-event system, etc.  Because of this,
Ptolemy can be used to model entire systems.

In addition, Ptolemy now has code generation capabilities.  From a
flow graph description, Ptolemy can generate both C code and DSP
assembly code for rapid prototyping.  Note that code generation is
not yet complete, and is included in the current release for
demonstration purposes only.

Ptolemy has been used for a broad range of applications including
signal processing, telecomunications, parallel processing, wireless
communications, optical phase lock loops, real time systems, and
hardware/software co-design.  Ptolemy has also been used as a lab
for signal processing and communications courses.  Currently Ptolemy
has hundreds of users in over 75 sites, both in industry and academia.

Ptolemy is available for the Sun 4 (sparc) and DecStation (MIPS)
architectures.  A port to the HP workstation is in progress.
Installing the system requires 49 Mbytes for Ptolemy (64 Mbytes
after you optionally rebuild) and 16 Mbytes for the Gnu tools
subset.  At least 8 Mbytes of physical memory are required.

Ptolemy has been developed at UC Berkeley over the past 3 years.
Further information, including papers and the complete release
notes, is available from the FTP site.

A license is no longer required to receive Ptolemy.  The source code,
binaries, and documentation are available by anonymous ftp from

From file note.10 on gatekeeper.dec.com, ftp dir /pub/DEC/magic/notes:

	[...]
	An earlier release of MAGIC, version 4, has been ported 
	to both the DOS and OS/2 operating systems.  
	The DOS version contains a fully functional editor,
	but is limited in memory size, as well as some other
	functions (no CIF file exchange).
	The OS/2 version is complete and requires 
	2 Megabytes of RAM.  Both versions require EGA 
	or VGA color graphics and a Microsoft-compatible mouse.
	Both versions of the software are being made 
	available in binary form to anyone in the U.S. by
	the MOSIS Users' Group for just a $25 handling fee.  
	To order, contact:
