—Modern micro-architecture simulators are many orders of magnitude slower than the hardware they simulate. The use of multiprocessor architectures for supporting future mobile an...
Leakage power in cache memories represents a sizable fraction of total power consumption, and many techniques have been proposed to reduce it. As a matter of fact, during a fixed ...
Abstract Fractional Motion Estimation (FME) in highdefinition H.264 presents a significant design challenge in terms of memory bandwidth, latency and area cost as there are various...
Adaptation in embedded processing is key in order to address efficiency. The concept of extensible embedded processors works well if a few a-priori known hot spots exist. However,...
Exploiting today’s multiprocessors requires highperformance and correct concurrent systems code (optimising compilers, language runtimes, OS kernels, etc.), which in turn requir...
