    • Code optimizations for narrow bitwidth architectures 

      Bhagat, Indu (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2012-02-23)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      This thesis takes a HW/SW collaborative approach to tackle the problem of computational inefficiency in a holistic manner. The hardware is redesigned by restraining the datapath to merely 16-bit datawidth (integer datapath ...

      This paper proposes a unique hardware-software collaborative strategy to remove useless work at 16-bit data-width granularity. The underlying motivation is to design a low power execution platform by exploiting ‘narrow’ ...
