E-Book Overview
This book presents a "compiler-in-the-loop" exploration strategy for alternative memory architectures, allowing for effective matching of the target application to the processor-memory architecture. This new approach for memory architecture exploration replaces the traditional black-box view of the memory system. The utility of the approach is illustrated for a set of large, real-life benchmarks. Material is of interest to different groups in the embedded systems-on-chip field, including researchers and students in memory architecture, CAD developers, and system designers. Grun is affiliated with the Center for Embedded Computer Systems, University of California-Irvine. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR"
