I found this to be an extremely useful article. It was well-written and geared
for people who are not familar with pipelining or who have a limited
understanding.

Technical Remarks:

This article, while easy to read and useful, is not intended for advanced
readers. It is specifically targetted to people new to pipelining.

1. 20 minutes
2. Good quality content. However, it is designed to be a beginning-level
tutorial on pipelining and in CPU architecture in general. If you already have a
sound grasp on the concepts, or if you?re an engineer at Intel already, there?s
probably not much new here.
3. The material will enhance both the teaching/learning of the material.
Provides a good overview of pipelining basics.
4. An easy read.
