The size and speed of first-level caches and SRAMs of embedded processors continue to increase in response to demands for higher performance. In power-sensitive devices like PDAs a...
CRYPTONITE is a programmable processor tailored to the needs of crypto algorithms. The design of CRYPTONITE was based on an in-depth application analysis in which standard crypto ...
We present new architectural concepts for uniprocessor designs that conform to the data-driven computation paradigm. Usage of our D2 -CPU (Data-Driven processor) follows the natura...
This paper presents the architecture and design of a high-performance asynchronous Huffman decoder for compressed-code embedded processors. In such processors, embedded programs a...
Software-based self-test (SBST) is emerging as a promising technology for enabling at-speed test of high-speed microprocessors using low-cost testers. We explore the fault diagnos...
