WebRISC-V: A 64-bit RISC-V Pipeline Simulator for Computer Architecture Classes
Abstract
WebRISC-V is a web-based educational tool designed to simulate the pipelined execution of assembly programs according to the RV64IM specifications (64-bit RISC-V processor). The tool allows users to investigate pipeline stalls, understand the internal state of pipeline architectural blocks, and visualize the cycle-by-cycle execution of instructions. WebRISC-V executes directly in a web browser, providing a detailed pipeline execution for RISC-V processors. This paper describes the features of WebRISC-V, compares it with similar tools, and provides an example of its usage in investigating the pipeline.
