Evaluation of min/max instructions for fuzzy information processing
Hiroyuki Watanabe, Danqi Chen, S. Konuri · IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems · 1996
We report the results of dynamic measurements which evaluate the effectiveness of an application specific microprocessor for fuzzy control and fuzzy information processing. We propose to specialize an architecture of microprocessor for fuzzy theoretic operations using quantitative techniques developed by designers of reduced instruction set computer (RISC). In particular, an introduction of specialized instructions is considered. Experimental results show that we can achieve as high as 2.5 speed up of a program for fuzzy control by introducing two instructions-min and max.
