Abstract

The market for embedded processors is driven primarily by two factors: cost and volume&#046; This has forced a reevaluation of the best way to satisfy users&#8242; needs for high performance and low energy consumption without drastically increasing the complexity of the design process&#046; Domain&#8211;specific embedded processors, in markets such as network processing, automotive, and others, have splintered a pre&#8211;existing market for general&#8211;purpose, low&#8211;cost, low&#8211;energy processors&#046; Reprogrammable and reconfigurable embedded processors, in contrast, offer a single, fixed&#8211;silicon device that could amortize manufacturing costs for low&#8211;to&#8211;medium volume market segments&#046; SASP explores (micro)architectural design approaches, trade&#8211;offs and compiler technologies, for both domain&#8211;specific and customizable embedded processors&#046; The symposium is a forum wherein challenges and solutions will be explored, discussed and compared&#046;<br>
