Fragmentation can cause serious loss of memory in systems that are using dynamic memory management. Any useful memory management system must therefore provide means to limit fragm...
Today's digital signal processors (DSPs), unlike general-purpose processors, use a non-uniform addressing model in which the primary components of the memory system--the DRAM...

The main contribution of this work is an analytical model for finding the upper bound on the temperature difference among various locations on the die. The proposed model can be u...
We analyze the effect of thermal constraints on the performance and power of multi-core processors. We propose system-level power and thermal models, and derive expressions for (a...
