Energy-Aware Memory Management for Embedded Multimedia Systems : A Computer-Aided Design Approach

Omtale

Providing an algebraic framework for memory management tasks, this book illustrates how to optimize energy consumption in memory subsystems using CAD solutions. It covers data-dependence analysis techniques, memory size estimation methods, extensions of mapping approaches, and memory banking approaches. The book shows how these techniques are used to evaluate the data storage of an application, reduce dynamic and static energy consumption, design energy-efficient address generation units, and much more. The algorithmic style of the text should help readers create prototype software tools for system-level exploration.
