Web memory hierarchy learning and research environment

Learning the various structures and levels of memory hierarchy by means of conventional procedures is a complex subject. A memory hierarchy environment (Web-MHE) was proposed and developed as part of our undergraduate research, to serve not only as an auxiliary teaching tool for the Computer’s Architecture professor, but also as a learning facility tool for the student carrying out his undergraduate or graduate courses. The environment encompasses the knowledge of the various levels of the memory hierarchy, and can be either used by students in his studies or by senior researchers. In conclusion, the Web-MHE offers the user the possibility to simulate, experiment and learn the various concepts of the memory hierarchy.
