A large and increasing number of modern embedded systems are subject to tight power/energy constraints. It has been demonstrated that the operating system (OS) can have a signifi...
DSP processors usually provide dedicated address generation units (AGUs) to assist address computation. By carefully allocating variables in the memory, DSP compilers take advanta...
Energy consumption has become an increasingly important consideration in designing many real-time embedded systems. Variable voltage processors, if used properly, can dramatically...
Leakage energy consumption is an increasing concern in current and future CMOS technologygenerations. Procrastination scheduling, where task execution can be delayed to maximize t...
Location-based applications have become increasingly popular on smartphones over the past years. The active use of these applications can however cause device battery drain owing ...
