User authentication, which refers to the process of verifying the identity of a user, is becoming an important security requirement in various embedded systems. While conventional...
The Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) of a programmable processor is the native languageof the machine. It defines the set of operations and resourcesthat are optimized for that ...
Due to the continuously decreasing cost of FPGAs, they have become a valid implementation platform for SOCs. Typically, a soft core processor implementation is used to execute the ...
Multicore processors have become ubiquitous in today’s systems, but exploiting the parallelism they offer remains difficult, especially for legacy application and applications ...
While soft processors are increasingly common in FPGAbased embedded systems, it remains a challenge to scale their performance. We propose extending soft processor instruction set...
