This paper presents a detailed branch characterization of an Oracle based commercial on-line transaction processing workload, Oracle Database Benchmark (ODB), running on an IA32 p...
The allocation of device variables on I/O registers affects the code size and performance of an I/O device driver. This work seeks the allocation with the minimal software or hard...
No two flight missions are alike, hence, development and on-orbit software costs are high. Software portability and adaptability across hardware platforms and operating systems ha...
We propose a system architecture for real-time hardware speech recognition on low-cost, power-constrained devices. The system is intended to support real-time speech-based user in...
Fast instruction decoding is a challenge for the design of CISC microprocessors. A well-known solution to overcome this problem is using a trace cache. It stores and fetches alrea...
