Embedded real-time multimedia applications usually imply data parallel processing. SIMD processors embedded in SOCs are cost-effective to exploit the underlying parallelism. Howev...
Multimedia applications today constitute a significant fraction of the workload running on portable devices such as mobile phones, PDAs and MP3 players. However, the processors i...
SystemC is the de facto standard for modeling embedded systems. It allows system design at various levels of abstractions, provides typical object-orientation features and incorpo...
—Fast track is a software speculation system that enables unsafe optimization of sequential code. It speculatively runs optimized code to improve performance and then checks the ...
Configurations of contemporary DRAM memory systems become increasingly complex. A recent study [5] shows that application performance is highly sensitive to choices of configura...
