I suspect if you want a HW architecture for running array operations you'll end up with something like a vector machine (e.g. ARM SVE(2) ) or a GPU rather than a VLIW CPU?
- marcosdumay 5y agoVLIW is basically a more flexible kind of vector machine.
- jabl 5y agoAnd a traditional scalar architecture is more flexible still. The trick is to pick the correct set of tradeoffs for the targeted applications. I claim that for most array style workloads vector/GPU architectures are flexible enough, and offer better perf/watt and perf/chip area.
