Scratchpad memory (SPM), a fast software-managed onchip SRAM, is now widely used in modern embedded processors. Compared to hardware-managed cache, it is more efficient in perfor...
— An effectively designed and efficiently used memory hierarchy, composed of scratch-pads or cache, is seen today as the key to obtaining energy and performance gains in data-do...
— Leveraging the power of scratchpad memories (SPMs) available in most embedded systems today is crucial to extract maximum performance from application programs. While regular a...
