Abstract— Microcode enables programmability of (micro) architectural structures to enhance functionality and to apply patches to an existing design. As more features get added to...
— The latest development of hardware design and ation methodologies shows a trend towards abstraction levels higher than RTL, referred to as transaction level (TL). Transaction l...
