Embedded application requirements, including high performance, low power consumption and fast time to market, are uncommon in the broader domain of general purpose applications. I...
Abstract. An extensible and configurable processor is a programmable platform offering the possibility to customize the instruction set and/or underlying microarchitecture. Efficie...
Abstract. In this paper, we present CCProc, a flexible cryptography coprocessor for symmetric-key algorithms. Based on an extensive analysis of many symmetric-key ciphers, includi...
The last decade has witnessed the emergence of the Application Specific Instruction-set Processor (ASIP) as a viable platform for embedded systems. Extensible ASIPs allow the user...
Accounting for the CPU consumption of applications is crucial for software development to detect and remove performance bottlenecks (profiling) and to evaluate the performance of ...
