While caches have become invaluable for higher-end architectures due to their ability to hide, in part, the gap between processor speed and memory access times, caches (and partic...
Embedded control systems with hard real-time constraints require that deadlines are met at all times or the system may malfunction with potentially catastrophic consequences. Sched...
— General purpose architectures are designed to offer average high performance regardless of the particular application that is being run. Performance and power inefficiencies a...
