Abstract
Summary form only given. A scheme for code compression that has a fast decompression algorithm, which can be implemented using simple hardware, is proposed. The effectiveness of the scheme on the TMS320C62x architecture that includes the overheads of a line address table (LAT) is evaluated and obtained compression rates ranging from 70% to 80%. Two schemes for decompression are proposed. The basic idea underlying the scheme is a simple clustering algorithm that partially maps a block of instructions into a set of clusters. The clustering algorithm is a greedy algorithm based on the frequency of occurrence of various instructions.
