Abstract
Customizable processors are being used increasingly often in SoC designs. During the past few years, they have proven to be a good way to solve the conflicting flexibility and performance requirements of embedded systems design. While their usefulness has been demonstrated in a wide range of products, a few challenges remain to be addressed: 1) Is extending a standard core template the right way to customization, or is it preferable to design a fully customized core from scratch? 2) Is the automation offered by current toolchains, in particular generation of complex instructions and their reuse, enough for what users would like to see? 3) And when we look at the future with the increasing use of multi-processor SoCs, do we see a sea of identical customized processors, or a heterogeneous mix? We comment and elaborate here on these challenges and open questions.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
