At Philips Research Labs, we are investigating the 64-bit VLIW core (also called CPU64) for future TriMedia processors. This processor is targeted towards embedded multimedia applications. In order to be able to perform a quantitative design space exploration, a set of benchmark applications has been developed which is representative of the application domain. This article describes the way the benchmark set was developed, as well as providing a more detailed description of one of the benchmarks. As a result, it is shown that this new cpu has a high performance for the application domain while the programming interface is very convenient. Furthermore, such a programmable media processor may offer new options and challenges to algorithm designers.
