As soft processors are increasingly used in diverse applications, there is a need to evolve their microarchitectures in a way that suits the FPGA implementation substrate. This pa...
In this paper we explore a new clustering approach for reducing the complexity of wide issue in-order processors based on EPIC architectures. Complexity effectiveness is achieved ...

We present a new micro-architecture for evaluating functions based on piecewise quadratic interpolation. The micro-architecture consists mainly of a look-up table and two multiply...
The doubling of microprocessor performance every three years has been the result of two factors: more transistors per chip and superlinear scaling of the processor clock with tech...

A key advantage of soft processors (processors built on an FPGA programmable fabric) over hard processors is that they can be customized to suit an application program's spec...
