This workshop has been held at both ISCA and at HPCA in the past. The
goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for educators to discuss and
share their experiences and teaching philosophy. The hope is that
participants come away from the workshop with a fresh look at how they
deliver courses in the areas related to Computer Architecture. This workshop
will include presentations by representatives from many of top Computer
Science and Computer Engineering programs throughout the world,
discussing the content of their curricula. The workshop will also include
presentations of refereed papers. Topics of interest include: 

* Textbook
* Hardware and Software Tools
* Course Development
* Advanced Courses
* Related Topics

The workshop format will include panel sessions as well as presentations of
invited and refereed paper.
