The conventional classification of inter-instruction dependencies (data, anti and output dependencies) provides a basic scheme for the analysis of pipeline hazards in pipelined in...
During the last years, the growing application complexity, design, and mask costs have compelled embedded system designers to increasingly consider partially reconfigurable applica...
In this paper, we present a general and an efficient algorithm for automatic selection of new application-specific instructions under hardware resources constraints. The instructi...
