An energy-efficient distributed Scratchpad Video Memory Architecture (dSVM) for the next-
generation parallel High Efficiency Video Coding is presented. Our dSVM combines private …

In this paper, we present a dynamic and adaptive scratchpad memory (SPM) management
strategy targeting a multi-task environment. It can be applied to a contemporary embedded …

Block motion estimation is being widely used in video coding. A new adaptive technique
based on pixel decimation for estimating motion vector is presented. In the traditional …

Previous research has demonstrated that scratchpad memory (SPM) consumes far less
power and on-chip area than the traditional cache. As a software managed memory, SPM …

ScratchPad Memory (SPM) is highly adopted in real-time systems as it exhibits a predictable
behaviour. SPM is software-managed by explicitly inserting instructions to move code and …

In this paper, we present an approach to improve performance of multi-core embedded
architectures utilizing on-chip software-managed memory. The proposed approach targets …

Branch prediction is critical to the instruction-level parallelism. Researchers have been
focusing on branch direction algorithm for a long time and recent improvement on the …

Software-managed scratchpad memory (Scratch) is a type of SRAM, small in size but
comparatively fast. Compared with cache, Scratch inspired the programmer having benefits …

Many state-of-the-art embedded systems adopt scratch-pad memory (SPM) as the main on-
chip memory due to its advantages in terms of energy consumption and on-chip area. The …

The objective of this paper is to introduce a innovative architecture tailored for multi-core
processors, aimed at enabling high-performance parallel computing. The proposed …
