Abstract

Aspects of microprocessor programming are described and compared to the programming of conventional computers. The effects of microprocessor architectures and their current state of development are related to commonly used utility and language support software and to trends in the availability of these programs.

State re-encoding for peak current minimization
ICCAD '06: Proceedings of the 2006 IEEE/ACM international conference on Computer-aided design

In a synchronous finite state machine (FSM), huge current peaks are often observed at the moment of state transition. Previous low power state encoding algorithms focus on the reduction of switching activities of state registers (i.e., state bits). ...
