“…Using appropriate assignments, hands-on exercises, projects and visual simulators, as well as teaching methodology will lighten the teaching and learning process of PDC course. For example, Liang [7] presented a nice survey of hands-on assignments and projects. Another example is demonstrated by Hatfield and Jin [8].…”

Emerging technologies and increased computing resources challenge the universities to establish learning environments, where the students will learn to efficiently utilize multicore or multi-chip multiprocessors. In this paper, we present a new pilot project with the following goals: (1) as an e-Learning platform for the course on Parallel and Distributed Computing, and (2) as a benchmarking plat-form to measure the algorithm performance indicators such as speed, speedup and efficiency of the parallel implementation.

Abstract. Microprocessors are critical to the information technology. Learning processor design is essential for undergraduate students of computer science and engineering related majors. It is challenging to teach undergraduate students processor design in a limited time. In this paper, we introduce our experience of teaching the processor design with hardware-software collaboration. In addition to hardware circuits, students also learn to design the assembler, loader, and simulator to form a close-loop design flow for processor design. With this hardware-software collaborative approach, the students can complete the course tasks and achieve the course goal more efficiently.

Abstract-Computer architecture is an essential topic in undergraduate Computer Science (CS) curricula. Teaching computer architecture courses to CS students can be challenging, as the concepts are on a high abstraction level and not easy to grasp for students. Learning of computer architecture abstracts is strongly reinforced by hands-on assignment experience. This paper presents results from a survey of assignments from 40 undergraduate computer architecture courses, which are offered in 40 CS departments. These surveyed courses are selected from universities listed among the 120 top North America universities by the Webometrics Ranking of World Universities 2015. The information used for this survey is based solely on material publicly accessible on the websites of courses.
