The growing speed gap between memory and processor makes an efficient use of the cache ever more important to reach high performance. One of the most important ways to improve cac...
Tiling is a widely used loop transformation for exposing/exploiting parallelism and data locality. Effective use of tiling requires selection and tuning of the tile sizes. This is...
Many modern embedded processors (esp. DSPs) support partitioned memory banks (also called X-Y memory or dual bank memory) along with parallel load/store instructions to achieve co...
