Abstract :
There are problems in incorporating VHDL into the undergraduate curriculum´s beginning computer architecture courses. The problems relate mainly to cost arising from two factors: VHDL tool availability and proper lecture material to coincide with the course objective(s). At the Georgia Institute of Technology, pilot VHDL lecture materials have been developed to address these two issues
