Typical memory characterization techniques using memory compilers and instance-specific memories have a number of tradeoffs—development time, accuracy, performance, and more. Ad-hoc instance-specific ...
Charged with the task of improving yield, product engineers need to find the location of defects in manufactured ICs quickly and efficiently. Typically, they use volume scan diagnosis to generate ...
By utilizing cache partitioning, real-time operating systems (RTOSs) such as DDC-I’s Deos can help programmers isolate safety-critical tasks from detrimental cache effects, reducing WCET, increasing ...
Even with today’s powerful multicore processors, system designers must make sure that processes share resources correctly. Time partitioning is a key technique for ensuring that an OS correctly shares ...
In a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) system, the ability to reassign processors, memory and I/O to specific applications on the fly without shutting down the machine. The reassignment can be done by ...
