Application-specific instruction set processor (ASIP) has become an important design choice for embedded systems. It can achieve both high flexibility offered by the base processo...
Extensible processors allow addition of application-specific custom instructions to the core instruction set architecture. However, it is computationally expensive to automaticall...
—Instruction set simulators (ISS) are vital tools for compiler and processor architecture design space exploration and verification. State-of-the-art simulators using just-in-ti...
Abstract Due to the large variety of di erent embedded processor types, retargetable software development tools, such as compilers and simulators, have received attention recently....
