The instruction cache is a popular target for optimizations of microprocessor-based systems because of the cache’s high impact on system performance and power, and because of th...
Coarse Grain Reconfigurable Architectures (CGRAs) promise high performance at high power efficiency. They fulfil this promise by keeping the hardware extremely simple, and movi...
