Replacing functional units of an extensible processor with reconfigurable functional units enhances performance and flexibility of processors to execute custom instructions. That ...
An innovative technique to model and simulate partial and dynamic reconfigurable processors is presented in this paper. The basis for development is a SystemC kernel modified for ...
In an embedded system including a base processor integrated with a tightly coupled accelerator, extracting frequently executed portions of the code (hot portion) and executing thei...
Almost methods in embedded software modeling take software architecture as one of the crucial parts of the design process. Since a principal role of embedded software is the inter...
Self-management is a key feature of autonomic systems. This often demands the dynamic reconfiguration of a distributed application. An important issue in the reconfiguration proce...
