Instruction set simulators are critical tools for the exploration and validation of new programmable architectures. Due to increasing complexity of the architectures and timeto-ma...
In this paper, a new architecture called the extendable instruction set computer (EISC) is introduced that addresses the issues of memory size and performance in embedded micropro...
This paper introduces Way Stealing, a simple architectural modification to a cache-based processor to increase data bandwidth to and from application-specific Instruction Set Exte...
