The AE32000 processor core, developed by Advanced Digital Chips Inc.,
Korea, is used primarily in the embedded processing environment. The AE32000
simulator models this embedded processor core having high code density. An enhanced
simulator was developed to study the performance of the present Instruction
Set Architecture after comparison with the Simplescalar ARM simulator. ARM is
among the most widely used processor cores for embedded applications and so was
chosen for this comparison. Code density of the AE32000 is very high because of
its shorter instruction length. This results in a smaller footprint inside the memory.
But the longer instruction length of the ARM proves better when it comes to performance.
The LERI(Load Extension Register Immediate) unit of the AE32000 has
a special role before instructions that need long immediate values during execution. / Graduation date: 2004
