Abstract - In this paper, we hypothesize that reconfigurable computing is not more widely used because of the logistical difficulties caused by the close coupling of applications a...

We present an extension to an existing SPARC V8 instruction set simulator, SimICS, to support accurate profiling of branches and instruction cache misses. SimICS had previously su...
A virtual instruction set architecture (V-ISA) implemented via a processor-specific software translation layer can provide great flexibility to processor designers. Recent examp...

VLIW machines possibly provide the most direct way to exploit instruction level parallelism; however, they cannot be used to emulate current general-purpose instruction set archit...
Instruction set extensions (ISEs) can accelerate embedded processor performance. Many algorithms for ISE generation have shown good potential; some of them have recently been expa...
