While performance, area, and power constraints have been the driving force in designing current communication-enabled embedded systems, post-fabrication and run-time adaptability ...
Due to their high volume, general-purpose processors, and now chip multiprocessors (CMPs), are much more cost effective than ASICs, but lag significantly in terms of performance a...
Graphics processing units (GPUs) provide both memory bandwidth and arithmetic performance far greater than that available on CPUs but, because of their Single-Instruction-Multiple...
This paper describes a methodology for synthesizing the data-path of a Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) based Video Signal Processor (VSP). Offering both performance and programm...
The ability to deliver appropriate information to learners at the most appropriate time is an essential component of good instruction. In the best learning environments, this info...
