We propose a new instruction, branch-on-random, that is like a standard conditional branch, except rather than specifying the condition on which the branch should be taken, it spe...
Abstract--Test cost minimisation approaches have traditionally been devoted to minimising "execution costs", while maximising coverage or reliability. However, in a runti...
The growing complexity of modern processors has made the generation of highly efficient code increasingly difficult. Manual code generation is very time consuming, but it is oft...
Today's digital signal processors (DSPs), unlike general-purpose processors, use a non-uniform addressing model in which the primary components of the memory system--the DRAM...
