This paper explores a novel way to incorporate hardware-programmable resources into a processor microarchitecture to improve the performance of general-purpose applications. Throu...
Abstract. We reexamine the limits of parallelism available in programs, using runtime reconstruction of program data-flow graphs. While limits of parallelism have been examined in...
New media and signal processing applications demand ever higher performance while operating within the tight power constraints of mobile devices. A range of hardware implementatio...

— VLIW processors provide higher performance and better efficiency etc. than RISC processors in specific domains like multimedia applications etc. A disadvantage is the bloated...
One potentialdisadvantage of a machine with a reduced instruction. set is that object programs may be substantially larger than those for a machine with a richer, more complex ins...
