—Current micro-architecture blindly uses the address in the program counter to fetch and execute instructions without validating its legitimacy. Whenever this blind-folded instru...
The run-time performance of VLIW (very long instruction word) microprocessors depends heavily on the effectiveness of its associated optimizing compiler. Typical VLIW compiler pha...
Abstract. In this paper, we explain mechanisms for providing embedded network processors and other low-level programming environments with light-weight support for safe resource sh...
—Huge new design challenges for system-on-chip (SoC) are the result of decreasing time-to-market coupled with rapidly increasing gate counts and embedded software representing 50...
At Northeastern University we are building a number of courses upon a common embedded systems platform. The goal is to reduce the learning curve associated with new architectures ...
