The cache hierarchy design in existing SMT and superscalar processors is optimized for latency, but not for bandwidth. The size of the L1 data cache did not scale over the past dec...
Many different video processor architectures exist. Its architecture gives a processor strength for a particular application. Hardwired logic yields the best performance/cost, but ...
A key advantage of soft processors (processors built on an FPGA programmable fabric) over hard processors is that they can be customized to suit an application program's spec...
