[seul-edu] New educational app

[Doug Loss <dloss@suscom.net>]

Just found on Freshmeat:

<http://www.rlab.idc.ac.il/hack/>

From the website: This application is intended to be used as a teaching
aid to the subjects of computer architecture. It consists of :

  1.a computer simulator which has the usual hardware (cpu, memory,
registers, screen etc...) which "understands" assembly language
commands. (IBC = I ByteCode)

  2.a virtual machine (vm) level which "understands" bytecode and
manages some global tables in the memory, thus enabling "function" level
access.

  3.a compiler that takes an input as a high level language (IPL = I
Programming Language) and compiles it into IBC. It also manages memory
allocations, method calls etc.

  4.and a GUI part which enables a user interface to all the mentioned
components.
