Abstract
ASIC microprocessors are becoming an important technology for the control of complex (“embedded”) systems. The advantage of such microprocessors is that they can be tailored to the application. This tailoring is quite non-intuitive and optimization is a complex process. Tools such as the Architect's Workbench (AWB) have been developed to assist in this optimization. An example study shows a more than two to one advantage of such assisted analysis.
