As the complexity of embedded systems grows rapidly, it is common to accelerate critical tasks with hardware. Designers usually use off-the-shelf components or licensed IP cores t...
Although domain-specialized FPGAs can offer significant area, speed and power improvements over conventional reconfigurable devices, there are several unique and unexplored design...
This paper proposes and evaluates single-ISA heterogeneous multi-core architectures as a mechanism to reduce processor power dissipation. Our design incorporates heterogeneous cor...
