The building blocks of today's and future embedded systems are complex intellectual property components, or cores, many of which are programmable processors. Tr
This book focuses on source-to-source code transformations that remove addressing-related overhead present in most multimedia or signal processing application p
This book proposes novel memory hierarchies and software optimization techniques for the optimal utilization of memory hierarchies. It presents a wide range of
Modern electronics is driven by the explosive growth of digital communications and multi-media technology. A basic challenge is to design first-time-right compl
Today's embedded and real-time systems contain a mix of processor types: off-the-shelf microcontrollers, digital signal processors (DSPs), and custom processors
