Lee, Jong Hyuk; Lee, Seung Eun; Yu, Heon Chang; Suh, Taeweon – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2012
This paper presents a pipelined CPU design project with a field programmable gate array (FPGA) system in a computer architecture course. The class project is a five-stage pipelined 32-bit MIPS design with experiments on the Altera DE2 board. For proper scheduling, milestones were set every one or two weeks to help students complete the project on…

Foster, D. L. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2012
For a basic foundation in computer engineering, universities traditionally teach synchronous sequential circuit design, using discrete gates or field programmable gate arrays, and a microcomputers course that includes basic I/O processing. These courses, though critical, expose students to only a small subset of tools. At co-op schools like…

Benson, B.; Arfaee, A.; Choon Kim; Kastner, R.; Gupta, R. K. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2011
Early exposure to embedded computing systems is crucial for students to be prepared for the embedded computing demands of today's world. However, exposure to systems knowledge often comes too late in the curriculum to stimulate students' interests and to provide a meaningful difference in how they direct their choice of electives for future…
