Recent research has shown that programs often exhibit value locality. Such locality occurs when a code segment, although executed repeatedly in the program, takes only a small num...
To meet the high demand for powerful embedded processors, VLIW architectures are increasingly complex (e.g., multiple clusters), and moreover, they now run increasingly sophistica...
Memory profiling is the process of characterizing a program's memory behavior by observing and recording its response to specific input sets. Relevant aspects of the program&...
Empirical search is a strategy used during the installation of library generators such as ATLAS, FFTW, and SPIRAL to identify the algorithm or the version of an algorithm that del...
The high transistor density afforded by modern VLSI processes have enabled the design of embedded processors that use clustered execution units to deliver high levels of performan...
