5. VHDL Structural Elements: Architecture

6. VHDL Structural Elements: Component Declaration

7. VHDL Structural Elements: Component Instantiation

8. CLBM Rule of Component

9. Signals in Path Solution: For each a path, use two input/output places to describe the actuals and formals, respectively.
