Software systems must face two challenges today: growing complexity and increasing parallelism in the underlying computational models. The problem of increased complexity is often...
In this paper, we propose a low-power approach to the design of embedded very long instruction word (VLIW) processor architectures based on the forwarding (or bypassing) hardware, ...
We present a methodology for microarchitectural customization of embedded processors by exploiting application information, thus attaining the twin benefits of processor standardi...
Transistor leakage is poised to become the dominant source of power dissipation in digital systems, and reconfigurable devices are not immune to this problem. Modern FPGAs already...
Multimedia and communication algorithms from embedded system domain often make extensive use of floating-point arithmetic. Due to the complexity and expense of the floating-poin...
