The second goal is to offer to use this CPU as a teaching material within computer architecture/organization courses for students to understand the essentials and inner workings of a CPU better by designing a simple one. In addition to this, it is also aimed to teach writing code both in assembly level and C level for the CPU designed to understand what a compiler is and why it is needed.engrestrictedAccessconferenceObject00045984740012110.1109/UBMK.2018.8566475VSCPUProcessorCompilerFPGAEducation2-s2.0-85060570428
