the level of abstraction in system design promises to enable faster exploration of the design space at early stages. While scheduling decision for embedded software has great impa...
With power dissipation becoming an increasingly vexing problem across many classes of computer systems, measuring power dissipation of real, running systems has become crucial for...
This paper proposes and evaluates single-ISA heterogeneous multi-core architectures as a mechanism to reduce processor power dissipation. Our design incorporates heterogeneous cor...
