Abstract
A method for graphically tracking progression of instructions through hardware components. Instructions of a code segment are defined by graphical icons where each graphical icon has a displayable appearance that identifies a type of instruction. The method tracks each graphical icon when simulating execution of the code segment through the hardware components. The method then displays a progression of each graphical icon through the hardware components during execution of the code segment.
