Newly developed instruction set architectures are nowadays typically based on the RISC principle. Yet, more abstract instruction sets also have their advantages. In the AMIDAR project Java Bytecode was used as the instruction set. Instructions are realized as compositions of micro instructions that are distributed to specialized functional units. An explicit timing of these micro instructions is not necessary in AMIDAR processors. This simplifies the conversion of compute intense instruction sequences into hardware structures while the system is running. The relatively high abstraction level of the Bytecode facilitates the analysis and synthesis remarkably. Yet, the native execution of the Bytecode comes with a number of drawbacks. In this contribution, we show a new instruction set architecture that preserves the high abstraction level of Bytecode while at the same time avoiding inefficient data transports. We show that on average the new instruction set reduces the number of clock cycles for our benchmark set by a factor of 3. |
