While hardware instruction caches are present in virtually all general-purpose and high-performance microprocessors today, many embedded processors use SRAM or scratchpad memories...
The size and speed of first-level caches and SRAMs of embedded processors continue to increase in response to demands for higher performance. In power-sensitive devices like PDAs a...
On-chip memory organization is one of the most important aspects that can influence the overall system behavior in multiprocessor systems. Following the trend set by high-perform...
