| Application Specific Instruction Set Processors (ASIPs) offer a good trade-off between flexibility, performance and energy efficiency. However, their effectiveness relies on the ability to properly customize processors to target classes of embedded applications and create the corresponding development environments, in reasonable time. The first paper enhances a well known architecture description language so that compilers and instruction set simulators can all be generated from a single, consistent model. The second and third papers explore several aspects of extending a processor's instruction set, including mechanisms for instruction set selection and inclusion of local memory elements. | |||
