Alive and well and living with starlets in Vegas. "Starlets" is a
euphemism for "embedded"; TI, Philips and numerous other vendors will
tell you that rumors of the demise are greatly exaggerated. :-)
And wide-issue is coming to the general-purpose world too. The Mill,
while not actually a VLIW, is wide-issue like one.
[VLIW works great for signal processing if you know in advance exactly
the program you want to run, and better if you can tweak the code.
Please refer arguments about the merits of the Mill to comp.arch,
though. -John]
