Implementing a custom hardware is not always feasible due to cost and time considerations. No instruction set computer (NISC) architecture is one of the promising direction to des...
As wireless platforms converge to multimedia systems, architectures must converge to support voice, data, and video applications. From a processor architecture perspective, suppor...

Many processor architectures provide a set of addressing modes in their address generation units. For example DSPs (digital signal processors) have powerful addressing modes for e...
It is widely known that parallel operation execution in multiprocessor systems generates a respective increase in memory accesses. Since the memory and bus subsystems provide a li...
