Thursday, June 13, 2002, 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM | Room: Auditorium B SESSION 41    Processors and Accelerators for Embedded Applications    Chair: Chris Rowen - Tensilica, Santa Clara, CA    Organizers: Kurt Keutzer, Majid Sarrafzadeh    The papers in this session explore the design challenges associated with taking an embedded application all the way to silicon. The first paper explores the design of a Rijndael processor. The second looks at a contemporary embedded processor design. Each of these two designs probes the state-of-the-art in performance. The third paper reviews architectural and micro-architectural issues in the development of an accelerator for network applications.      41.1 Unlocking the Design Secrets of a 2.29 Gb/s Rijndael Processor    Speaker(s): Patrick R.
