Keywords: symmetric multiprocessing  MIPS32 system  IC design  processor 

[Summary of tips] Driving individual processor performance to the limit in a given implementation technology is never easy or efficient. Faster clocks, deeper pipelines and bigger caches carry silicon area and power dissipation costs that result in diminishing returns for that last 10 percent of performance. Sometimes there is no alternative but......
