Building a high-performance microprocessor presents many reliability challenges. Designers must verify the correctness of large complex systems and construct implementations that ...
The run-time performance of VLIW (very long instruction word) microprocessors depends heavily on the effectiveness of its associated optimizing compiler. Typical VLIW compiler pha...
Increasing non-recurring engineering (NRE) and mask costs are making it harder to turn to hardwired Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) solutions for high performance a...
In this article, we describe the application of an enhanced genetic algorithm to the problem of hardware-software codesign. Starting from a source code written in a high-level lan...
Hyperthreaded(HT) and simultaneous multithreaded (SMT) processors are now available in commodity workstations and servers. This technology is designed to increase throughput by ex...
