This paper describes a technique for calculating the switching activity of a set of registers shared by dierent data values. Based on the assumption that the joint pdf (probabili...
Many techniques for increasing the amount of instruction-level parallelism (ILP) put increased pressure on the registers inside a CPU. These techniques allow for more operations t...

In high-level synthesis, as for compilers, an important question is when register assignment should take place. Unlike compilers for which the processor architecture is given, syn...
Built-in self-test BIST techniques modify functional hardware to give a data path the capability to test itself. The modi cation of data path registers into registers BIST resourc...

Code compression is a field where compression ratios between compiler-generated code and subsequent compressed code are highly dependent on decisions made at compile time. Most op...
