Dynamic functional unit assignment for low power [PDF]
2003 Design, Automation and Test in Europe Conference and Exhibition, 2003 A hardware method for functional unit assignment is presented, based on the principle that a functional unit's power consumption is approximated by the switching activity of its inputs. Since computing the Hamming distance of the inputs in hardware is expensive, only a portion of the inputs are examined. Integers often have many identical top bits, due
