We present a co-simulation environment for multiprocessor architectures, that is based on SystemC and allows a transparent integration of instruction set simulators (ISSs) within ...
Future embedded systems are expected to use chip-multiprocessors to provide the execution power for increasingly demanding applications. Multiprocessors increase the pressure on th...

Efficient use of the memory hierarchy is critical for achieving high performance in a multiprocessor systemon-chip. An external memory that is shared between processors is a bottl...

We studied the dynamic instruction count reduction for a single-thread, vectorized and a multi-threaded, non-vectorized, MPEG-4 video encoder. Results indicate a maximum improveme...
Snoopy cache coherence protocols broadcast requests to all nodes, reducing the latency of cache to cache transfer misses at the expense of increasing interconnect power. We propos...
