Adaptation in embedded processing is key in order to address efficiency. The concept of extensible embedded processors works well if a few a-priori known hot spots exist. However,...
Performance of applications can be boosted by executing application-specific Instruction Set Extensions (ISEs) on a specialized hardware coupled with a processor core. Many commer...

We developed a new hierarchical modular approach for synthesis of area-minimal core-based data-intensive systems. The optimization approach employs a novel global least-constraini...
This paper studies an interesting yet less explored behavior of memory access instructions, called access region locality. Unlike the traditional temporal and spatial data localit...
Abstract. Existing variable-length instruction formats provide higher code densities than fixed-length formats, but are ill-suited to pipelined or parallel instruction fetch and de...
