The Logarithmic Number System (LNS) is an alternative to IEEE-754 standard floating-point arithmetic. LNS multiply, divide and square root are easier than IEEE-754 and naturally ...
Bilinear interpolation is often used to improve image quality after performing spatial transformation operations such as digital zooming or rotation. In the traditional case where...
Energy saving is becoming one of the major design issues in processor architectures with multiple functional units (FUs). Nested loops are usually the most critical part in multim...
Indirect branches have become increasingly common in modular programs written in modern object-oriented languages and virtualmachine based runtime systems. Unfortunately, the pred...
Code sandboxing is useful for many purposes, but most sandboxing techniques require kernel modifications, do not completely isolate guest code, or incur substantial performance co...
