ECEbuntu is a customized operating system designed for electrical and computer engineering (ECE) students. ECEbuntu is targeted to universities and students as it represents an environment that contains more than 30 pre-installed software and packages all catering to undergraduate course-work in ECE. ECEbuntu supports a range of tools including programming tools, tools for circuit analysis and pcb design, mathematical and numerical analysis tools, network analysis and tools for microwave and RF transmission design. ECEbuntu is free and is intended to be an alternate to existing copyrighted/expensive solutions. It is built on top of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS operating system. ECEbuntu attempts to reduce duplication of effort for building software workstations in laboratories and is intended to act as a good teaching source for a class room setting.
