In chip multiprocessors (CMPs), data accesslatency dependson the memory hierarchy organization, the on-chip interconnect (NoC), and the running workload. Reducing data access late...
In an embedded system, it is common to have several memory areas with different properties, such as access time and size. An access to a specific memory area is usually restricted...
