Conventionally, the use of virtual memory in real-time systems has been avoided, the main reason being the difficulties it provides to timing analysis. However, there is a trend ...
The memory subsystem accounts for a significant portion of the aggregate energy budget of contemporary embedded systems. Moreover, there exists a large potential for optimizing th...
An important issue in embedded systems design is the size of programs. As computing devices decrease in size, yet with more and more functions, better code size optimizations are i...
Instruction set simulators are indispensable tools for the architectural exploration and verification of embedded systems. Different techniques have recently been proposed to spe...
The growing use of digital signal processors (DSPs) in embedded systems necessitates the use of optimizing compilers supporting special hardware features. Due to the irregular arc...
