Multimedia instruction set extensions have become a prominent feature in desktop microprocessor platforms, promising superior performance on a wide range of floating-point and int...
Extensive research has been done on extracting parallelism from single instruction stream processors. This paper presents some results of our investigation into ways to modify MIM...
Abstract-- The power consumption of microprocessors has been increasing in step with the complexity of each progressive generation. In general purpose processors, this is primarily...
In this paper, we present a low power high temperature 80C51 microcontroller. The low power optimizations are applied at gate and architectural level, by using extensive clock and ...
