winget install --id=BrunoNova.DrMIPS -e DrMIPS is a graphical simulator of the MIPS processor to support computer architecture teaching and learning. It is intuitive, versatile and configurable. The simulator is available not only for personal computers but also for Android devices, especially tablets. DrMIPS was created under the Master’s dissertation entitled Tool to Support Computer Architecture Teaching and Learning at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto, in Portugal. Requires Java 8 or later.
DrMIPS is a graphical simulator designed to facilitate teaching and learning of computer architecture by providing an interactive environment for simulating MIPS processors.
Key features include:
- Compatibility with both personal computers and Android devices, particularly tablets.
- Support for simulating both unicycle and pipeline versions of the MIPS processor.
- A visual representation of the datapath with step-by-step execution capabilities.
- Configurable instruction sets and components to adapt to various educational needs.
- An integrated code editor featuring syntax highlighting for enhanced coding experience.
- Availability in multiple themes (light and dark) and a flexible layout for different screen configurations.
Ideal for educators, students, and self-learners in computer architecture, DrMIPS enhances understanding through visualization and hands-on practice. It can be installed via winget, making it accessible for educational use.
