Unlike most traditional architectures, where programmed operations trigger internal data transports, TTAs function through programming the data transports themselves. As a result the new architecture alleviates bottlenecks, allows for new code-generation optimizations and exploits hardware more efficiently. Founded on the author’s recent research, this book evaluates the attributes of different classes of architectures. It demonstrates how TTAs can be used as a template for automatic generation of application-specific processors and highlights their suitability for embedded system design. Several commercial TTA implementations have proven its concepts and advantages.  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures includes:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eComplexity analysis of the data path of Instruction Level Parallel processors, particularly of VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word) and super-pipelined processors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDerivation of the transport triggering concept illustrating processor simplification\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIn-depth analysis of the architecture design space of TTAs and evaluation of architecture parameters\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamination of the control and pipelining of instruction, function and register units\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDescription of a trajectory for the automatic synthesis of TTAs for arbitrary applications written in a high-level language\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDetailed description of a prototype TTA processor enabling the reader to design an embedded computer system with excellent cost-performance ratio\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMicroprocessor Architectures\u003c\/i\u003e is cutting-edge text which will prove invaluable to both industrial hardware and software engineers involved in embedded system design and to postgraduate electrical engineering and computer science students.
