First evidence of ForwardCom effectiveness

Post by Kulasko »

For my bachelor thesis, I examined the impact certain features present in ForwardCom have on processor performance.
It's only a synthetic test using a self-built CPU simulator, but it demonstrates an actual performance merit ForwardCom could have for hardware implementations.
As such, it also validates the usefulness of a more powerful ISA, compared to simpler ones like RISC-V.

The thesis can be found at https://github.com/ForwardCom/universit ... Thesis.pdf.

Congratulations with your thesis, Kulasko.
Officially, it is 'just' a bachelor thesis, but in reality it is the result of six years of work. A very impressive achievement!
Thank you for your work. I hope you will continue...
