In this paper, we propose a low-power approach to the design of embedded very long instruction word (VLIW) processor architectures based on the forwarding (or bypassing) hardware, ...
Processor obsolescence is a serious maintenance problem for long-lived embedded control systems. A practical solution is to interpose an emulator program between the ‘legacy’ s...
The performance of most embedded systems is critically dependent on the average memory access latency. Improving the cache hit rate can have significant positive impact on the per...
Instruction scheduling is a necessary step in compiling for many modern microprocessors. Traditionally, global instruction scheduling techniques have outperformed local techniques....
Energy-aware compilers are becoming increasingly important for embedded systems due to the need to meet conflicting constraints on time, code size and power consumption. We intro...
