Power Estimation and Optimization Methodologies for VLIW-based Embedded Systems (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2003)

This volume introduces innovative power estimation and optimization methodologies to support the design of low power embedded systems based on high-performance VLIW microprocessors. A VLIW processor is a (generally) pipelined processor that can execute, in each clock cycle, a set of explicitly parallel operations.
