The counterflow pipeline concept was originated by Sproull et al.[1] to demonstrate the concept of asynchronous circuits. This architecture relies on distributed decision making an...
Two of the most important design issues for modern processors are power and performance. It is important for students in computer organization classes to understand the tradeoff b...
Retargetable C compilers are key tools for efficient architecture exploration for embedded processors. In this paper we describe a novel approach to retargetable compilation based...
Compilers employ many aggressive code transformations to achieve highly optimized code. However, because of complex target architectures and unpredictable optimization interaction...
Many architectural ideas that appear to be useful from a hardware standpoint fail to achieve wide acceptance due to lack of compiler support. In this paper we explore the design of...
