Bit-slicing is a non-conventional implementation technique for cryptographic software where an n-bit processor is considered as a collection of n 1-bit execution units operating in...
Abstract. Customizable processors augmented with application-specific Instruction Set Extensions (ISEs) have begun to gain traction in recent years. The most effective ISEs include...

An advanced Self-Timed Reduced Instruction Set Computer (ST-RISC) architecture is described. It is designed hierarchically, and is formally specified functionally at the various ...
As more data value speculation mechanisms are being proposed to speed-up processors, there is growing pressure on the critical processor structures that must buffer the state of t...
The ever increasing gap in processor and memory speeds has a very negative impact on performance. One possible solution to overcome this problem is the Kilo-instruction processor. ...
