While the number of transistors on a chip increases exponentially over time, the productivity that can be realized from these systems has not kept pace. To deal with the complexit...
— Wireless sensor network (WSN) architectures often feature a (single) base station in charge of coordinating the application functionality. Although this assumption simplified ...
The growing complexity of modern processors has made the generation of highly efficient code increasingly difficult. Manual code generation is very time consuming, but it is oft...
Embedded software is a preferred choice for implementing system functionality in modern System-on-Chip (SoC) designs, due to the high flexibility, and lower engineering costs pro...
Cache hierarchies have been traditionally designed for usage by a single application, thread or core. As multi-threaded (MT) and multi-core (CMP) platform architectures emerge and...
