    The end of the year is approaching, but I’d like to have one last delta before taking some time off. PowerPC vs. Arm, seems like an appropriate stand-off. In this rendition. However, I will incarnate...
  • Expanding the Memory Model Tools to System-level architecture
    Please note: This blog post was written in tandem with Nikos Nikoleris . In a previous post , we used litmus7 to generate source code and run litmus tests on hardware. However, in certain...
  • Instruction and Related Flag update
    Hi all, When the arithmetic and logical instruction like SUBS, LSLS are executed the processor flag will be updated. Can somebody point to the document where the information on affected flags of each...
  • Prototyping of ARM Cortex-M Processor systems in FPGA
    If you are a microcontroller / SoC / ASIC designer working on Cortex-M processor based systems looking for an FPGA board for prototyping, I have a great news for you: ARM has released a new FPGA board...
  • My Personal View of ARM
    After a few years research and study about ARM, I was impressed by the ARM cortex, not just because it can be created as cheap as possible by a highly advance machine, but at the simplicity of the design...
