Exploiting Fixed Programs in Embedded Systems: A Loop Cache Example
Embedded systems commonly execute one program for their lifetime. Designing embedded system architectures with configurable components, such that those components can be tuned to t...

Tuning of Loop Cache Architectures to Programs in Embedded System Design
Adding a small loop cache to a microprocessor has been shown to reduce average instruction fetch energy for various sets of embedded system applications. With the advent of core-b...

Complete worst-case execution time analysis of straight-line hard real-time programs
In this article, the problem of finding a tight estimate on the worst-case execution time (WCET) of a real-time program is addressed. The analysis is focused on straight-line code...

Bounding Loop Iterations for Timing Analysis
Static timing analyzers need to know the minimum and maximum number of iterations associated with each loop in a real-time program so accurate timing predictions can be obtained. ...

Bounding Worst-Case Data Cache Behavior by Analytically Deriving Cache Reference Patterns
While caches have become invaluable for higher-end architectures due to their ability to hide, in part, the gap between processor speed and memory access times, caches (and partic...
