Experimental Setup<br />

• Design implemented <strong>on</strong> Xilinx<br />

ML510 board<br />

• 32‐bit PLB based system bus<br />

• Embedded system runs at 100<br />

MHz<br />

• PowerPC program code is<br />

compiled with gcc using –o2<br />

optimizati<strong>on</strong><br />

• FPU <strong>on</strong>ly used for comparis<strong>on</strong><br />

• FPVC program code is written in<br />

machine code <strong>an</strong>d unoptimized<br />

• Program <strong>an</strong>d Data Dt are stored din<br />

BRAM (main memory)<br />

• Main metric for perform<strong>an</strong>ce<br />

measurement is number of clock<br />

cycles
