— Traditional level-one instruction caches and data caches for embedded systems typically have the same capacities. Configurable caches either shut down a part of the cache to su...
In embedded system design, the designer has to choose an onchip memory configuration that is suitable for a specific application. To aid in this design choice, we present a memory...
Caches may consume half of a microprocessor’s total power and cache misses incur accessing off-chip memory, which is both time consuming and energy costly. Therefore, minimizing...
Pre-designed configurable platforms, possessing microprocessors, memories, and numerous peripherals on a single chip, are increasing in popularity in embedded system design. Platf...
Active power used to be the primary contributor to total power dissipation of CMOS designs, but with the technology scaling, the share of leakage in total power consumption of dig...
