The Partnership for Engineering Education in the Rockies (PEER) is comprised of local educational and industrial institutions committed to improving the engineering education path...
System-on-Chip design is an important new trend in the design of complex integrated circuits. The integration of a microprocessor, memory and peripherals onto a single die opens n...
In this paper we present an FPGA-based daughtercard designed for TI’s C6000 family of DSP Starter Kits (DSKs). The hardware, initially designed for a course project, provides a ...

The fast growing complexity and short time-tomarket of embedded systems designs, besides the great increase in capacity of today’s chips, are mobilizing the industry towards to ...
We introduce techniques to support efficient non-atomic execution of very long traces on a new binary translation based, x86-64 compatible VLIW microprocessor. Incrementally comm...
We present the TM3270 media-processor, the latest TriMedia VLIW processor, tuned to address the performance demands of standard definition video processing, combined with embedded...

This paper describes a scalable, low-complexity alternative to the conventional load/store queue (LSQ) for superscalar processors that execute load and store instructions speculat...
Conventional processors use a fully-associative store queue (SQ) to implement store-load forwarding. Associative search latency does not scale well to capacities and bandwidths re...
