Replacing functional units of an extensible processor with reconfigurable functional units enhances performance and flexibility of processors to execute custom instructions. That ...
This paper presents a reconfigurable functional unit (RFU) for an adaptive dynamic extensible processor. The processor can tune its extended instructions to the target application...
Extracting appropriate custom instructions is an important phase for implementing an application on an extensible processor with a reconfigurable functional unit (RFU). Custom inst...
In the context of general-purpose processing, an increasing number of diverse functional units are added to cover a wide spectrum of applications. However, it is still possible to ...
One of the upcoming challenges in embedded processing is to incorporate an increasing amount of adaptivity in order to respond to the multifarious constraints induced by today’s...
