The memory subsystem of a complex multiprocessor systemson-chip (MPSoC) is an important contributor to the chip power consumption. The selection of memory architecture, as well as...
Modern embedded microprocessors use low power on-chip memories called scratch-pad memories to store frequently executed instructions and data. Unlike traditional caches, scratch-p...
