Conventional processor architectures are restricted in exploiting instruction level parallelism
(ILP) due to the limited number of available registers in their instruction sets. Therefore …

Recent processor architectures expose their datapaths to the compiler so that the compiler
not only takes care of scheduling instructions to the available processing units but also of …

Processors require local memory close to the execution units to bridge the long latencies for
accessing the comparatively slow main memory. In particular, traditional processor …

Many recent processor architectures expose their datapaths so that the compiler can not
only schedule instructions to increase instruction-level concurrency, but can even take care …

Scaling up conventional processor architectures cannot translate the everincreasing number
of transistors into comparable application performance. Although the trend is to shift from …
