Real Time Flow Control for an Advanced Java Co-Processor

Abstract:

This paper presents a novel method for real time flow control
in Java execution. The approach is to use a coprocessor for execution
of Java bytecode, enhanced with timers. The co-processor is designed
using asynchronous techniques to provide low power usage with
reasonable performance. The co-processor can be used in a single CPU
and single coprocessor environment or in a network of multiple CPUs
and co-processors. The co-processor does not need to know what kind of
environment it is placed in, as all communication goes through an
interface unit designed especially for that environment. This
modularity of the design makes the co-processor more reusable and
allows system level scalability. This work is a part of a project
focusing on design of an advanced Java co-processor for Java intensive
SoC applications.
