This paper investigates how dynamic branch prediction in a microprocessor affects the predictability of execution time for software running on that processor. By means of experim...
In reverse engineering, parsing may be partially done to extract lightweight source models. Parsing code containing preprocessing directives, syntactical errors and embedded langu...
Despite of the proliferation of object-oriented and component technology, their application to real-time operating systems (RTOS) has been limited since most design concerns in RT...
Code size has always been an important issue for all embedded applications as well as larger systems. Code compression techniques have been devised as a way of battling bloated co...
In an embedded system, the cost of storing a program onchip can be as high as the cost of a microprocessor. Compressing an application’s code to reduce the amount of memory requ...
