This paper presents the design and implementation of the new Active Memory Manager Unit (AMMU) designed to be embedded into System-on-Chip CPUs. The unit is implemented using VHDL...
Garbage collection yields numerous software engineering benefits, but its quantitative impact on performance remains elusive. One can compare the cost of conservative garbage col...
New portable consumer embedded devices must execute multimedia and wireless network applications that demand extensive memory footprint. Moreover, they must heavily rely on Dynami...
