This paper presents a quantification of the timing effects that advanced processor features like data and instruction cache, pipelines, branch prediction units and out-oforder ex...
In reverse engineering, parsing may be partially done to extract lightweight source models. Parsing code containing preprocessing directives, syntactical errors and embedded langu...
Memory interleaving is a cost-efficient approach to increase bandwidth. Improving data access locality and reducing memory access conflicts are two important aspects to achieve hi...
Abstract Code optimization for digital signal processors DSPs has been identi ed as an important new topic in system-level design of embedded systems. Both DSP processors and algor...
With the increased clock frequency of modern, high-performance processors over 500 MHz, in some cases, limiting the power dissipation has become the most stringent design target. ...
