In this paper we present a methodology that is based on SystemC [1] for rapid prototyping to greatly enhance and accelerate the exploration of complex systems to optimize the syst...
Researchers have recently proposed coupling small- to mediumscale multiprocessors to build large-scale shared memory machines, known as multigrain shared memory systems. Multigrai...
Embedded system programs tend to spend much time in small loops. Introducing a very small loop cache into the instruction memory hierarchy has thus been shown to substantially red...
This discussion paper explores the problems of operating systems support when implementing concurrency controls at the level of the instruction set in processors designed for mult...
Recent advances in device technology and connectivity have paved the way for next generation applications that are data-driven, where data can reside anywhere, can be accessed at ...
