Abstract :
The goal of the paper is to present some of the design characteristics and performance of a special purpose custom machine that has the potential of improving the speed of the implementation of a beam search algorithm by two orders of magnitude when compared with a general purpose architecture implementation. The paper also describes the architecture of a general purpose self-timed device that can be used in implementing such a machine.
