We live in a multicore world. In spite of this observation, none of the available system emulators designed for undergraduate education and for use in operating systems courses support multiprocessors. This paper presents μMPS2, a pedagogically undergraduate-appropriate multiprocessor system emulator/architecture. Using μMPS2 educators now have the ability to structure realistic operating system projects to maximize student exposure to the ubiquitous parallelism and concurrency present in current computing devices.
