Abstract—One of the ways that custom instruction set extensions can improve over software execution is through the use of hardware structures that have been optimized at the arit...
Designing instruction set processors and constructing their compilers are mutually dependent tasks. Piper is a high level synthesis tool of ADAS which controls the hardware-softwa...
Abstract. We describe a new approach for creating hardware description language (HDL) specifications for custom instructions, to form part of the instruction-set architecture (ISA)...
—This paper focuses on SIMD processor synthesis and proposes a SIMD instruction set/functional unit synthesis algorithm. Given an initial assembly code and a timing constraint, t...
