Since pipelining is a very important implementation technique for processors,
students in Computer Science need to achieve a good understanding of it.
UCO.MIPSIM simulator has been developed to support teaching such concepts.
This paper introduces the basics of pipelining and describes UCO.MIPSIM, its
main components and its functions. The learning effectiveness of the simulator has
been tested by means of the comparison with two learning tools, the traditional
paper and pencil and another pipelined computer simulator. In this way, a tool
evaluation methodology is also introduced
