DOTTA: a dynamic VLIW like microprocessor framework for high speed parallel computing

In this paper, a new microprocessor design framework, called DOTTA (dynamic operation transport triggered array) is introduced. An FPGA (field programmable gate array) implementation of DOTTA is presented. The aim of this new processor framework is to eliminate bottlenecks introduced by traditional microprocessor architectures. The framework defines a task-specific microprocessor that is application customisable on the target system it is operating on; this has been achieved by using Xilinxtrade FPGA fabric
