Processor Description Languages is the first comprehensive survey of modern processor ADLs and is an invaluable reference for embedded system architects, researchers, designers, developers and validation engineers. Readers will see that the use of particular ADLs will lead to productivity gains in designing particular (application-specific) types of embedded processors. Furthermore, read¬ ers wilt be able to understand the role of processor ADLs in facilitating the rapid and reliable development of the entire ecosystem surrounding the deployment of embedded processors, including the generation of a software toolkit (compilers, simulators, debuggers and validation/verification environments)..

After reaping the benefits of across the manufactured parts and across use of these parts the Moore’s law driven cost reductions, we are now beginning over time in the field. These variations have led to increasing use of overdesign and guardbands in design and test to ensure to experience dramatically deteriorating effects of material yield and reliability with respect to a rigid set of datasheet properties on (active and leakage) power, and die yields. So far, specifications. This paper explores the possibility of constructing the problem has been confined to the hardware manufacturers computing machines that purposely expose hardware variations who have responded with increasing guardbands applied to to various layers of the system stack including software. This microelectronic chip designs. However, the problem continues leads to the vision of underdesigned hardware that utilizes a software stack that opportunistically adapts to a sensed or mod- to worsen with critical dimensions shrinking to atomic scale.

    1 Memory Hierarchy Hardware-Software Co-design in Embedded Systems Zhiguo Ge1, H. B. Lim2, W. F. Wong1;2 1 Department of Computer Science, 2 Singapore-MIT Alliance, National University of Singapore Abstract— The memory hierarchy is the main bottleneck in All these diverse constraints on embedded systems including modern computer systems as the gap between the speed of the area, performance and power consumption result in enormous processor and the memory continues to grow larger. The situation issues and concerns during the design process. Among them, in embedded systems is even worse. The memory hierarchy consumes a large amount of chip area and energy, which are memory hierarchy design is of great importance. The mem- precious resources in embedded systems. Moreover, embedded ory bottleneck in a modern computer system is a widely systems have multiple design objectives such as performance, known problem: the memory speed cannot keep up with the energy consumption, and area, etc. processor speed. This problem becomes even worse in an Customizing the memory hierarchy for specific applications is embedded system, where designers not only need to consider a very important way to take full advantage of limited resources the performance, but also the energy consumption. In an to maximize the performance. However, the traditional custom memory hierarchy design methodologies are phase-ordered. They embedded system, memory hierarchy takes a huge portion of separate the application optimization from the memory hierarchy both the chip area and power consumption. Thus, optimizing architecture design, which tend to result in local-optimal solu- the memory hierarchy to reduce hardware usage and energy tions.
