Designing Application-Specific Instruction-set Processors (ASIPs) usually requires designing a custom datapath, and modifying instruction-set, instruction decoder, and compiler. A...
Application-specific customization of the instruction set helps embedded processors achieve significant performance and power efficiency. In this paper, we explore customizatio...
We present a methodology for microarchitectural customization of embedded processors by exploiting application information, thus attaining the twin benefits of processor standardi...
In the automatic design of custom instruction set processors, there can be a very large set of potential custom instructions, from which a few instructions are required to be chos...
