As memory speeds and bus capacitances continue to rise, external memory bus power will make up an increasing portion of the total system power budget for system-on-a-chip embedded...
Scratch-pad memory is becoming an important fixture in embedded multimedia systems. It is significantly more efficient than the cache, in performance and power, and has the add...
RISC processors can be used to face the ever increasing demand for performance required by embedded systems. Nevertheless, this solution comes with the cost of poor code density. ...

Recent progress in worst case timing analysis of programs has made it possible to perform accurate timing analysis of pipelined execution and instruction caching, which is necessa...
In this paper, we consider alternate ways of storing a sparse matrix and their effect on computational speed. They involve keeping both the indices and the non-zero elements in t...
