Abstract:In the area of embedded systems exists a continuous need for more computing power while still fulfilling a large set of constraints in -for instance -timing, safety, cost and energy consumption. Since single-core technologies seem to reach their limits, multi-core systems became the trend in this area. This paper describes a synthesis approach of application-specific homogeneous multi-core architectures, which are optimized towards timing, number of cores and energy consumption. Our method finds the optimal nu… 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.
