Abstract. Multimedia and network processing applications make extensive use of subword data. Since registers are capable of holding a full data word, when a subword variable is ass...
Commercial designs are currently integrating from 10 to 100 embedded processors in a single system on chip (SoC) and the number is likely to increase significantly in the near fut...
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, ...
Multimedia applications in general and video processing, such as the MPEG4 Visual stream decoders, in particular are increasingly popular and important workloads for future embedd...
We present a new VLIW core as a successor to the TriMedia TM1000. The processor is targeted for embedded use in media-processing devices like DTVs and set-top boxes. Intended as a...
