The memory subsystem accounts for a significant portion of the aggregate energy budget of contemporary embedded systems. Moreover, there exists a large potential for optimizing th...
This paper presents a new algorithm for on-the-fly data compression in high performance VLIW processors. The algorithm aggressively targets energy minimization of some of the domi...

Dictionary code compression is a technique where long instructions in the memory are replaced with shorter code words used as index in a table to look up the original instructions...
We present a novel algorithm that assigns codes to instructions during instruction code compression in order to minimize bus-related bit-toggling and thus reducing power consumpti...
