Abstract. Flexibility of programming and efficiency of program execution are two important features of a programming language. Unfortunately, however, there is an inherent conflict...
Extensible processors allow addition of application-specific custom instructions to the core instruction set architecture. These custom instructions are selected through an analys...
The task of mappingbetween source programs and machine code, once the code has been optimizedand transformed by a compiler is often di cult. Yet there are many instances, such as ...
—With increasing numbers of cores, future CMPs (Chip Multi-Processors) are likely to have a tiled architecture with a portion of shared L2 cache on each tile and a bankinterleave...
Embedded systems consisting of the application program ROM, RAM, the embedded processor core and any custom hardware on a single wafer are becoming increasingly common in areas suc...
