ABSTRACT

This paper presents design of a custom architecture for Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) using No-Instruction-Set Computer (NISC) technology that is developed for fast processor customization. Using several software transformations and hardware customization, we achieved up to 10 times performance improvement, 2 times power reduction, 12.8 times energy reduction, and 3 times area reduction compared to an already-optimized soft-core MIPS implementation.
