We studied the dynamic instruction count reduction for a single-thread, vectorized and a multi-threaded, non-vectorized, MPEG-4 video encoder. Results indicate a maximum improveme...
In this paper, we propose a hardware/software partitioning method for improving applications’ performance in embedded systems. Critical software parts are accelerated on hardwar...

On public communication networks such as the Internet, data confidentiality can be provided by symmetric-key ciphers. One of the most common operations used in symmetric-key ciphe...
We propose a digit-recurrence algorithm for division in real and complex number domains using a variable radix. The objective of the approach is to simplify the prescaling of the ...
Users expect future handhelddevices to provide extended multimedia functionality and have long battery life. This type of application imposes heavy constraints on performance and ...
