Ever-growing complexity is forcing design to move above RTL. For example, golden functional models are being written as clearly as possible in software and not optimized or intend...
In Software Transactional Memory (STM), contention management refers to the mechanisms used to ensure forward progress-to avoid livelock and starvation, and to promote throughput ...

This paper presents a multiprocessor system on FPGA that adopts Direct Memory Access (DMA) mechanisms to move data between the external memory and the local memory of each process...
Hybrid architectures combining the strengths of generalpurpose processors with application-specific hardware accelerators can lead to a significant performance improvement. Our ...
