Tile-Based rasterization on an embedded Tile-based MPSoC

Graphics on a computer are often handled by a graphics pipeline. Rasterization is an important stage in this pipeline. It converts the basic elements of computer graphics, triangles, into the basic elements of a screen, pixels. This stage is very computation intensive and has a large memory footprint. The last decade a lot of research has been...

Design of a Portable and Customizable Microprocessor for Rapid System Prototyping

Due to the increasing number of processors which are integrated in System On Chips (SOCs) the need for robust, highly configurable processors emerged. Preliminary research showed that commercial processors are not suited for many research projects due to the fact that they are closed source and they can not be modified. Open source processors on...
