The on-chip communication architecture is a major determinant of overall performance in complex System-on-Chip (SoC) designs. Since the communication requirements of SoC components...
While customizable processors aim at combining the flexibility of general purpose processors with the speed and power advantages of custom circuits, commercially available process...
Embedded processor performance is dependent on both the underlying architecture and the compiler optimisations applied. However, designing both simultaneously is extremely difficu...

The development of compiler-based mechanisms to reduce the percentage of hotspots and optimize the thermal profile of large register files has become an important issue. Thermal...
We propose an execution model that orchestrates the fine-grained interaction of a conventional general-purpose processor (GPP) and a high-speed reconfigurable hardware accelerator ...
