Recently, several loop buffer designs have been proposed to reduce instruction fetch energy due to size and location advantage of loop buffer. Nevertheless, on design complexity di...
A Zero Overhead Loop Buffer (ZOLB) is an architectural feature that is commonly found in DSP processors. This buffer can be viewed as a compiler managed cache that contains a sequ...
