Abstract. Scheduling algorithms significantly affect the performance of a realtime system. In systems with power constraints, context switches in a schedule result in wasted power ...

The majority of currently available branch predictors base their prediction accuracy on the previous k branch outcomes. Such predictors sustain high prediction accuracy but they do...

In the ubiquitous era, it is necessary to research the architectures of multiprocessor system with high performance and low power consumption. A simulator developed in high level l...
In this paper, we discuss the architecture of a modular UNIX-compatible operating system, MINIX 3, that provides reliability beyond that of most other systems. With nearly the ent...

Abstract. Instruction hints have become an important way to communicate compile-time information to the hardware. They can be generated by the compiler and the post-link optimizer ...
Abstract. Post-link and dynamic optimizations have become important to achieve program performance. A major challenge in post-link and dynamic optimizations is the acquisition of r...
This paper describes a new on-demand wakeup prediction policy for instruction cache leakage control that achieves better leakage savings than prior policies, and avoids the perform...
Abstract. Bypass delays are expected to grow beyond 1ns as technology scales. These delays necessitate pipelining of bypass paths at processor frequencies above 1GHz and thus affe...
Because the absence of hardware support, almost all of embedded operating system are based on SDRAM in past time. With progress of embedded system hardware, embedded system can pro...
