Modern processors have a small on-chip local memory for instructions. Usually it is in the form of a cache but in some cases it is an addressable memory. In the latter, the user is...
This paper describes an ultra low power active RFID tag and its automated design flow. RFID primitives to be supported by the tag are enumerated with RFID macros and the behavior ...

Digital signal processors provide specialized SIMD (single instruction multiple data) operations designed to dramatically increase performance in embedded systems. While these ope...
Accelerating program performance via SIMD vector units is very common in modern processors, as evidenced by the use of SSE, MMX, VSE, and VSX SIMD instructions in multimedia, scien...
The recent shift in the industry towards chip multiprocessor (CMP) designs has brought the need for multi-threaded applications to mainstream computing. As observed in several lim...
