In this paper, we investigate the benefits of a flexible, application-specific instruction set by adding a run-time Reconfigurable Functional Unit (RFU) to a VLIW processor. Preli...
Purely functional programs should run well on parallel hardware because of the absence of side effects, but it has proved hard to realise this potential in practice. Plenty of pap...
Application specific instruction-set processors combine an efficient general purpose core with special purpose functionality that is tailored to a particular application domain. ...

The growing complexity of modern processors has made the development of highly efficient code increasingly difficult. Manually developing highly efficient code is usually expen...
This paper proposes a comprehensive modeling architecture for workloads on parallel computers using Markov chains in combination with state dependent empirical distribution functi...
