Stream execution on wide-issue clustered VLIW architectures
Proceedings of the 2007 LCTES conferenceThis paper investigates the mapping of stream programs to wide-issue clustered VLIW processors so that designers can leverage their existing investments in VLIW-based platforms to harness the advantages of stream programming.
Machine-Description Driven Compilers for EPIC and VLIW Processors
In the past, due to the restricted gate count available on an inexpensive chip, embedded DSPs have had limited parallelism, few registers and irregular, incomplete interconnectivity. More recently, with increasing levels of integration, embedded VLIW ...
Low-power branch prediction techniques for VLIW architectures: a compiler-hints based approach
Special issue: ACM great lakes symposium on VLSIThe paper introduces a dynamic branch prediction scheme suitable for energy-aware Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) processors. The proposed technique is based on a compiler hint mechanism to filter the accesses to the branch predictor blocks. We define ...
