With increasing complexity of modern embedded systems, the availability of highly optimizing compilers becomes more and more important. At the same time, application specific inst...
Scenario-based specifications such as Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) are becoming increasingly popular as part of a requirements specification. Scenarios describe how system compo...
—Energy-efficient design of battery-powered systems demands optimizations in both hardware and software. We present a modular approach for enhancing instruction level simulators ...
In this paper, we are concerned about the performance estimation of bus-based architectures assuming that the task partitioning on the processing components is already determined....
Performance analysis of microprocessors is a critical step in defining the microarchitecture, prior to register-transfer-level (RTL) design. In complex chip multiprocessor systems...
