Patti, D.; Spadaccini, A.; Palesi, M.; Fazzino, F.; Catania, V. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2012
The topics of computer architecture are always taught using an Assembly dialect as an example. The most commonly used textbooks in this field use the MIPS64 Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) to help students in learning the fundamentals of computer architecture because of its orthogonality and its suitability for real-world applications. This…

d'Amore, Roberto – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2010
This article proposes a VHDL language course that establishes a strong correlation between the language statements and their use in circuit synthesis. Two course modules are described: a basic module that contains the essential concepts of the language, sufficient for students to describe medium complexity circuits, followed by a second module…

Sobh, Tarek M.; Tibrewal, Abhilasha – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2006
Operating systems theory primarily concentrates on the optimal use of computing resources. This paper presents an alternative approach to teaching and studying operating systems design and concepts by way of parametrically optimizing critical operating system functions. Detailed examples of two critical operating systems functions using the…

Orngreen, Rikke – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2004
Experience with case teaching, both at the Copenhagen Business School and also on a more large scale world basis, shows that students often do not carry out the kind of high level analysis of a case, which the case teaching paradigm claim it can encourage. Also, as the worlds of digital, multimedia and web-based educational environments emerge,…
