The instruction cache is a popular target for optimizations of microprocessor-based systems because of the cache’s high impact on system performance and power, and because of th...
Multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) is an integrated circuit containing multiple instruction-set processors on a single chip that implements most of the functionality of a compl...
This paper presents a new algorithm for on-the-fly data compression in high performance VLIW processors. The algorithm aggressively targets energy minimization of some of the domi...
