Hybrid processors are HW/SW co-designed processors that leverage blocked-execution, the execution of regions of instructions as atomic blocks, to facilitate aggressive speculative...
Data-race freedom is a valuable safety property for multithreaded programs that helps with catching bugs, simplifying memory consistency model semantics, and verifying and enforci...

This paper proposes a low power VLIW processor generation method by automatically extracting non-redundant activation conditions of pipeline registers for clock gating. It is impo...
Retargetable C compilers are nowadays widely used to quickly obtain compiler support for new embedded processors and to perform early processor architecture exploration. One frequ...
