Instruction Level Parallelism (ILP) is a way of improving the performance of a processor by executing operations simultaneously. Modern processors generally have an abundance of execution ...

You only need to validate one core of a CMP design. So if that core is simpler, validation is easier. And you have to worry about the rest of the logic no matter what your core design is. You dont get ...

Rising development costs motivate companies to design fewer systems-on-chip, but to make each one they do design more flexible and programmable. Doing so makes it possible to reuse designs to take ...

Instruction-level Parallelism (ILP) refers to design techniques that enable more than one RISC instruction to be executed simultaneously in the same instruction, which boosts processor performance by ...

Modern processor architectures invariably enable the parallel execution of several operations per clock cycle. Configurable processors such as the Improv Jazz VLIW DSP allow the user to modify and ...
