Animated StrongARM


hardware/software ration=0:100

Proposal

A collaboration between ARM (in Cambridge) and Digital (USA) has produced a high performance, low power processor, the StrongARM (& documentation). I would like a reversible discrete event simulation of the StrongARM in written in Java as a teaching tool.


Previous work

Stephen Thornhill made a good job of this project in 1997/98. Robin Hughes wrote an animated ARM 7 in Modula-3 - see "An Animated ARM", 1995.


Special resources

None.


Possible supervisors

I do not wish to supervise this project again.
