Embedded single-chip heterogeneous multiprocessor (SCHM) systems experience frequent system events such as task preemption, power-saving voltage/frequency scaling, or arrival of n...
The XScale processor family provides user-controllable independent configuration of CPU, bus, and memory frequencies. This feature introduces another handle for the code optimizat...
Dynamic instruction scheduling logic is one of the most critical components of modern superscalar microprocessors, both from the delay and power dissipation standpoints. The delay ...
