- This paper presents encoding techniques to optimize the switching activity on a multiplexed DRAM address bus. The DRAM switching activity can be classified either as external (be...
Abstract. In DSP processors, minimizing the amount of address calculations is critical for reducing code size and improving performance since studies of programs have shown that in...

In standard predictive video coders, intra-mode coding of macroblocks (MBs) provides packet loss resilience, at the cost of reduced compression efficiency. Conventional mode selec...
Abstract—Addressing both standby and active power is a major challenge in developing System-on-Chip designs for batterypowered products. Powering off sections of logic or memorie...
