We study the application of a standard model checker tool, Spin, to the well-known problem of computing a may-alias relation for a C program. A precise may-alias relation can signi...
Abstract-- For embedded systems where neither energy nor reliability can be easily sacrificed, we present an energy efficient soft error protection scheme for register files (RF). ...
Processors such as StrongARM and memory such as SDRAM enable efficient execution of multiple loads and stores in a single instruction. This is particularly useful in connection wi...
Abstract. It is often the case at runtime that variables and registers in programs are "quasi-invariant," i.e., the distribution of the values they take on is very skewed...
We present a new approach that enables compiler optimization of procedure calls and loop nests containing procedure calls. We introduce two interprocedural transformationsthat mov...
