Journal ArticleDOI
Processor reconfiguration through instruction-set metamorphosis
TL;DR: The processor reconfiguration through instruction-set metamorphosis (PRISM) general-purpose architecture, which speeds up computationally intensive tasks by augmenting the core processor's functionality with new operations, is described.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Quantitative analysis of floating point arithmetic on FPGA based custom computing machines
TL;DR: Using higher-level languages, like VHDL, facilitates the development of custom operators without significantly impacting operator performance or area, as well as properties, including area consumption and speed of working arithmetic operator units used in real-time applications.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
PRISM-II compiler and architecture
TL;DR: The architecture and compiler for a general-purpose metamorphic computing platform called PRISM-II, which improves the performance of many computationally-intensive tasks by augmenting the functionality of the core processor with new instructions that match the characteristics of targeted applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-time image processing on a custom computing platform
Peter Athanas,A.L. Abbott +1 more
TL;DR: The authors explored the utility of custom computing machinery for accelerating the development, testing, and prototyping of a diverse set of image processing applications and developed a real time image processing system called VTSplash, based on the Splash-2 general-purpose platform.
Journal ArticleDOI
