Abstract--The H.264 standard achieves much higher coding efficiency than the MPEG-2 standard, due to its improved inter-and intra-prediction modes at the expense of higher computat...
high NRE cost. Therefore, general purpose programmable processors using software to perform various functions become more attractive since programmability can simplify system devel...
Improvements in semiconductor technology have made it possible to include multiple processor cores on a single die. Chip Multi-Processors (CMP) are an attractive choice for future...
This paper introduces the Low-Power Intelligent Tool Environment (LITE), an object oriented tool set designed for power visualization, analysis, and optimization. These tools lever...
