Caches may consume half of a microprocessor’s total power and cache misses incur accessing off-chip memory, which is both time consuming and energy costly. Therefore, minimizing...
Performance of modern computers is tied closely to the effective use of cache because of the continually increasing speed discrepancy between processors and main memory. We demons...
There is increasing convergence between the fields of parallel and embedded computing. The demand for more functionality in embedded devices means that complex multicore architec...
Java technology has been integrated into mobile/wireless computing because of its rich support to portability (crossplatform nature), reusability (development libraries), and shor...
Advances in circuit and integration technology are continuously boosting the speed of microprocessors. One of the main challenges presented by such developments is the effective u...
