Centralized register file architectures scale poorly in terms of clock rate, chip area, and power consumption and are thus not suitable for consumer electronic devices. The conse...
Recent digital signal processors (DSPs) show a homogeneous VLIW-like data path architecture, which allows C compilers to generate efficient code. However, still some special rest...
Miniaturization of devices and the ensuing decrease in the threshold voltage has led to a substantial increase in the leakage component of the total processor energy consumption. ...
The VLIW processors with static instruction scheduling and thus deterministic execution times are very suitable for highperformance real-time DSP applications. But the two major w...
