A binary decoder is a common component of software development tools such as instruction set simulators, disassemblers and debuggers. The efficiency of the decoder can have a sign...
This paper describes a methodology for synthesizing the data-path of a Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) based Video Signal Processor (VSP). Offering both performance and programm...
During the last years, the growing application complexity, design, and mask costs have compelled embedded system designers to increasingly consider partially reconfigurable applica...
The IA-64 architecture has been designed as a synthesis of VLIW and superscalar design principles. It incorporates typical functionality known from embedded processors as multiply...
This paper explores hierarchical instruction scheduling for a tiled processor. Our results show that at the top level of the hierarchy, a simple profile-driven algorithm effective...
