Abstract
Due to the increasing complexity of integrated circuits it is becoming more difficult to teach all design steps on the basis of realworld examples submitted to realistic constraints. This turns out to be a problem especially in the design of reconfigurable architectures since they will often be integrated with other components. Therefore we developed a framework which gives students the opportunity to test any desired design in a realistic environment. This framework is based on TTAs (Transport Triggers Architectures) which enables the design of simple but universal processors.
