Abstract :
A multiuser development system is presented that was developed specifically for use in the instruction of digital systems design. This system affords students a unique opportunity to examine the actual implementation of advanced architectural features in an environment that is far more accessible than comparable designs using state-of-the-art microprocessors. The DSL System 990 has been used in the classroom for two years, and good results have been obtained. The students show the ability to effectively interact with the system as both users and designers
