Evaluation of Different ASIP-Configurations for an Embedded Computed Order Tracking Algorithm

Due to the increasing size and complexity of rotating machines, monitoring of all components becomes more critical. Therefore, this work presents a Design Space Exploration using six different Cadence® Tensilica® Xtensa® Instruction-Set Architectures and evaluates their performance regarding cycle count and power performance. Hence, a hardware-related software optimization of a computed order tracking algorithm is used and examined with a Pareto analysis at the end.
