VLIW architectures are popular in embedded systems because they offer high-performance processing at low cost and energy. The major problem with traditional VLIW designs is that t...

Multiple issue of instructions occurs in superscalar and VLIW machines. This paper investigates a third type of machine design, which combines the advantages of code compatibility...
As the issue widthof superscalar processors is increased, instructionfetch bandwidthrequirements will also increase. It will become necessary to fetch multiple basic blocks per cy...
Parallel random access memory, or PRAM, is a now venerable model of parallel computation that that still retains its usefulness for the design and analysis of parallel algorithms....
An instruction set architecture (ISA) suitable for future microprocessor design constraints is proposed. The ISA has hierarchical register files with a small number of accumulator...
