What is VLIW Architecture: Advantages and Challenges about?

The document discusses the VLIW (very long instruction word) architecture and its advantages and disadvantages. A typical VLIW processor has instruction words that are hundreds of bits long and uses multiple functional units concurrently. The compiler determines dependencies and schedules operations to different functional units. This avoids hardware scheduling but compatibility across implementations is difficult. Code density is also a problem for VLIW.
