Chip Multicore Processor (CMP) has become the mainstream microprocessor architecture in nowadays industry and academic literature. With the progress of CMP hardware developing and researching, software issues become more and more prominent. Coupled with these developments, many institutes and universities change their curriculums of computer architecture related courses. But the problem is dowe really know what we should teach in this fast changing times and is the right time now to make these changing without actually knowing what future would be. In this paper, we argue four key problems that we thought we should think carefully before we make the final decision. And also some suggestions are given for the educators of this area.

Parallel and distributed computing are subjects generally reserved for graduate programs. With the design of the multi-core architecture, it is essential that parallel design of software be integrated into the undergraduate computer science curriculum. Parallel programming represents the next turning point in how software developers write software. This paper will study different approaches that are used by different institutions of higher education around the world to integrate parallel computing into their curriculum. Teaching parallel computing concepts to undergraduate students is not an easy task. Educators need to prepare their students for the parallel era.

“…The need for multicore curricular reforms has been recognized by educators, but so far efforts to update curricula at various universities appear to have been limited to topics primarily related to chip multiprocessors [11][12][13][14] . This is important knowledge, but it is important that we examine the knowledge required for a broad array of multicore contexts and begin to address all aspects.…”
