Overview
Bennett is a hardware monitor application developed in house at the University of Manchester Computer Science department. It's used in several undergraduate course units investigating hardware design and microcontrollers. It acts as a ‘front-end’ both for simulated (COMP15111) and physical (COMP22712, COMP32211 …) RISC-V systems.
Bennett has been written in primarily C/C++ and uses the CMake build system.
