In this paper, an instruction-level energy model is proposed for the data-path of very long instruction word (VLIW) pipelined processors that can be used to provide accurate power ...
In this paper we propose a fault-tolerant processor architecture and an associated fault-tolerant computation model capable of fault tolerance in the nanoelectronic environment th...
Modern compilers must expose sufficient amounts of Instruction-Level Parallelism (ILP) to achieve the promised performance increases of superscalar and VLIW processors. One of the...

The register file access time is one of the critical delays in current superscalar processors. Its impact on processor performance is likely to increase in future processor genera...
