About Us
This project is a part of ILab activity at Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) led by Intel employees.
The aim of the project is to teach the students the computer architecture through development of a microprocessor implementing the MIPS and RISC-V instruction set in both functional and performance simulators.
- 2012: Alexander and Pavel replaced MDSP project with new project "uArchSim". More common MIPS became target ISA instead of complicated MDSP, focus was moved from simulation to computer architecture theory.
- 2013: Project got new pun name "MIPT-MIPS". Mentors attempted to use FPGA for modeling, but the idea was postponed due to external circumstances.
- 2014: Alexander and Pavel continued MIPT-MIPS project, adding new lectures material and assignments.
- 2015: Project moves from GoogleCode SVN to GitHub. Since Alexander started his Digital Design course, the new mentors team consists of Pavel Kryukov and Igor Smirnov.
- 2016: Project takes a half-year hiatus and starts on February 2017 with brand new assignments.
- 2017: The focus is moved to development of fast and versatile simulator. Lectures are delivered by Igor Smirnov.
- 2018: Simulation Development diverges out of MIPT-MIPS, lectures are delivered by Kirill Korolev and Oleg Ladin.
- 2019: Computer Architecture is back to focus, targeting analytic skills of students
- 2020: Slightly shifting from programming activities to analysis assignments
