Notes on the new CELL microprocessor
from IBM/Sony - http://www.blachford.info/computer/Cells/Cell1.html
If you are lucky enough to
own a PC with an AMD processor, try downloading and experimenting with AMD’s CodeAnalyst program, which profiles your code and finds
“hotspots”. It also includes a very nice pipeline simulator – see www.amd.com and click on “develop with AMD”
To find out more about your
own PC and its processor, download free tools from www.cpuid.com
A new tool winmips64
has been developed for use with the MIPS64 processor as described in the latest
version of the text-book. It is free, so download it if you wish.
