The architectural design of embedded systems is becoming increasingly idiosyncratic to meet varying constraints regarding energy consumption, code size, and execution time. Tradit...
When a compiler translates a procedure, it must lay out the procedure’s stack frame in a way that respects the calling convention. Many compilers respect the convention either by...
