Multimedia extensions (MME) are architectural extensions to general-purpose processors to boost the performance of multimedia workloads. Today, in-line assembly code, intrinsic fu...
Application specific processors offer the potential of rapidly designed logic specifically constructed to meet the performance and area demands of the task at hand. Recently, t...
To construct complete systems on silicon, application specic DSP accelerators are needed to speed up the execution of high throughput DSP algorithms. In this paper, a methodology...
