This work is building on results from the book named âA Pipelined Multi-core MIPS Machine: Hardware Implementation and Correctnessâ by M. Kovalev, S.M. Müller, and W.J. Paul, published as LNCS 9000 in 2014. It presents, at the gate level, construction and correctness proof of a multi-core machine with pipelined processors and extensive operating system support with the following features: ⢠MIPS instruction set architecture (ISA) for application and for system programming ⢠cache coherent memory system ⢠store buffers in front of the data caches ⢠interrupts and exceptions⢠memory management units (MMUs) ⢠pipelined processors: the classical five-stage pipeline is extended by two pipeline stages for address translation ⢠local interrupt controller (ICs) supporting inter-processor interrupts (IPIs) ⢠I/O-interrupt controller and a disk
