Due to the increasing demands on efficiency, performance and flexibility reconfigurable computational architectures are very promising candidates in embedded systems design. Recent...
Embedded software design for MPSoC needs parallel programming. Popular programming languages such as C and C++ are not adequate for initial specification since they are designed f...
Today’s embedded applications often consist of multiple concurrent tasks. These tasks are decomposed into subtasks which are in turn assigned and scheduled on multiple different...
This paper presents a technique for high-level power estimation of microprocessors. The technique, which is based on abstract execution profiles called ’event signatures’, op...
SoCs for multimedia applications typically use only one port to off-chip DRAM for cost reasons. The sharing of interconnect and the off-chip DRAM port by several IP blocks makes t...
