Treegion Scheduling for Vliw Processors
HAVANKI, WILLIAM ANDREW, JR. Treegion Scheduling for VLIW Processors. (Under the direction of Dr. Thomas M. Conte.) The instruction scheduling phase of compilation is an important determinant of VLIW program performance. One scheduling framework divides a program into regions of code that tend to execute together, and then constructs schedules for each region. Several regions suggested in the p...
متن کاملCode Compression for VLIW Processors
Code compression is an important issue in the design of an embedded system, since memory has been one of the most restricted resources. Most of the previous work in code compression has targeted RISC architectures, although VLIW processors have gained a lot of popularity recently. In this research, we explore methods to the problem of compressing code for VLIW processors. Previous code compress...
متن کاملRun - time Adaptable VLIW Processors
To my father and all other members of my family Summary In this dissertation, we propose to combine programmability with reconfig-urability by implementing an adaptable programmable VLIW processor in a reconfigurable hardware. The approach allows applications to be developed at high-level (C language level), while at the same time, the processor organization can be adapted to the specific requi...
متن کاملPower Modeling and Reduction of VLIW Processors
In this paper, we first present a cycle-accurate power simulator based on the IMPACT toolset. This simulator allows the designer to evaluate both VLIW compiler and microarchitecture innovations for power reduction. Using this simulator, we then develop and compare the following techniques with a bounded performance loss of 1% compared to the case without any dynamic throttling: (i) clock rampin...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of CSMT for VLIW Processors
Clustered VLIW embedded processors have become widespread due to benefits of simple hardware and low power. However, while some applications exhibit large amounts of instruction level parallelism (ILP) and benefit from very wide machines, others have little ILP, which wastes precious resources in wide processors. Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) is a well known technique that improves resource...
