Many high-end DSP processors employ both multiple memory banks and heterogeneous register files to improve performance and power consumption. The complexity of such architectures ...
Reconfigurable Systems-on-Chip (SoC) consist of large Field-Programmable Gate-Arrays (FPGAs) and standard processors. The reconfigurable logic can be used for application-specific...
