Exploiting Fixed Programs in Embedded Systems: A Loop Cache Example
Embedded systems commonly execute one program for their lifetime. Designing embedded system architectures with configurable components, such that those components can be tuned to that one program based on a program pre-analysis, can yield significant power and performance benefits. We illustrate such benefits by designing a loop cache specifically with tuning in mind. Our results show a 70% reduction in instruction memory access, for MIPS and 8051 processors
