Abstract:The demands of modern embedded systems are hastening the adoption of multicore SoCs. Although multicore SoCs can be conceptually viewed as distributed systems, the resources on multicore SoCs including interrupts and scheduling are mostly, if not all, managed by the operating systems on general purpose CPU on SoC in a centralized manner. This approach leads to heavy overhead on the general purpose CPU and does not scale up. This paper presents the design and implementation of a microkernel for multi-core DSP S… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
