Stack cache for stack-based processor and method thereof |
摘要 |
A multiple processor circuit arrangement utilizes a master processor which controls the operational state of a slave processor by programming internal control registers on the slave processor. In addition, a stack-based processor utilizes a stack cache for accelerating stack access operations and thereby accelerating the overall performance of the processor. When the stack-based processor is utilized as a slave processor in the aforementioned master/slave multi-processor computer system the slave processor is optimized to process platform-independent program code such as Java bytecodes, thereby permitting fast and efficient execution of both program code native to the master processor as well as platform-independent program code that is in effect native to the slave processor.
