Abstract
We present the design of a small but efficient
computer system, a software simulator with a graphical user interface, and
supporting software designed to integrate the educational experience of
students taking courses in Computer Organization and Architecture,
Operating Systems, and Compiler Design. We demonstrate the essential links
among these three areas of Computer Science, and discuss how to integrate
the developed system and software into the course material of the
above-mentioned courses.
