Memory dependence prediction allows out-of-order issue processors to achieve high degrees of instruction level parallelism by issuing load instructions at the earliest time withou...
In this paper, we investigate the benefits of a flexible, application-specific instruction set by adding a run-time Reconfigurable Functional Unit (RFU) to a VLIW processor. Preli...
Real-time systems design involves many important choices, including that of the processor. The fastest processors achieve performance by utilizing architectural features that make...
Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architectures exploit instruction level parallelism (ILP) with the help of the compiler to achieve higher instruction throughput with minimal hard...
One of the most important problems faced by microarchitecture designers is the poor scalability of some of the current solutions with increased clock frequencies and wider pipelin...
