An ARSENAL microprocessor challenges our ability to specify, debug, construct, test, describe and program the system. To achieve these types of systems, we need to be able to specify families of related processors and special purpose hardware engines along clean boundaries (such as issue width, pipeline structure, bit width, working set ...) in order to manage the complexity of the system. This is the key difference between an ARSENAL processor and today's system-on-a-chip. Since Computer Vision is a highly heterogeneous application domain, the San Diego Stingray will be designed as an instance of an ARSENAL processor and includes a T2 as one of its components.
