Off-chip memory accesses are a major source of power consumption in embedded processors. In order to reduce the amount of traffic between the processor and the off-chip memory as ...
Code sandboxing is useful for many purposes, but most sandboxing techniques require kernel modifications, do not completely isolate guest code, or incur substantial performance co...
