High-performance microprocessors are currently designed to exploit the inherent instruction level parallelism (ILP) available in most applications. The techniques used in their de...
Most microprocessor chips today use an out-of-order instruction execution mechanism. This mechanism allows superscalar processors to extract reasonably high levels of instruction ...
Intelligent mobile information devices require lowpower and high-performance processors. In order to reduce energy consumption with maintaining computing performance, we proposed ...
In high-performance computer systems, performance losses due to conditional branch instructions can be minimized by predicting a branch outcome and fetching, decoding, and/or issu...
In this paper, we introduce the Woolcano reconfigurable processor architecture. The architecture is based on the Xilinx Virtex-4 FX FPGA and leverages the Auxiliary Processing Uni...
