The intersection of computing architectures, tools and applications has been the driving theme throughout my research career. The Custom-Fit Processors project at HPL Cambridge (1994-2003), pioneered the area of customized embedded VLIW architectures. Processors born from that effort (the ST200/Lx family of VLIW cores), where I had a key role for almost a decade, are now being widely used in the audio, video and imaging consumer industry.
