Abstract:Abstract:The combination of multi-core, SIMD and VLIW schemes is becoming prevailing in today's media processor architectures. To achieve a deep insight into this trend, we propose a power conscious performance model based on the rationale of Hill and Marty's model. Several representative media application kernels are evaluated on the proposed model. The evaluation result shows that: for none communication applications, a large number of small cores achieve optimal performance; for communication applications, … Show more
