A memory leak in a garbage-collected program occurs when the program inadvertently maintains references to objects that it no longer needs. Memory leaks cause systematic heap grow...
In this article, we present the blue-c application programming interface (API) and discuss some of its performance characteristics. The blue-c API is a software toolkit for media-...
Existing methods place data or code in scratchpad memory, i.e., SPM by either relying on heuristics or resorting to integer programming or mapping it to a graph coloring problem. ...
Most programming languages support a call stack in the programming model and also in the runtime system. We show that for applications targeting low-power embedded microcontroller...
