Embedded environments have distinctly different memory management needs than their desktop/server counterparts. Explicit and organized memory management schemes are desirable. The methodology is ...

Abstract: High-level synthesis promises a significant shortening of the FPGA design cycle when compared with design entry using register transfer level (RTL) languages. Recent evaluations report that ...

Achieving optimal performance in GPU-centric workflows frequently requires customizing how host and device memory are allocated. For example, using "pinned" host memory for asynchronous host <-> ...

Download PDF Join the Discussion View in the ACM Digital Library Recognizing Rust’s potential, the industry has shown significant interest in migrating legacy systems from C to Rust. Such migration ...

As someone who has spent over two decades in the embedded systems industry, I’ve seen the vast evolution of technology—from 8-bit microcontrollers to today’s sophisticated, multicore systems. Yet, one ...

Here we define a Toy struct with a name field and create three instances representing Barbie and Superman toys. Each toy is initialized, and an array of pointers to these toy instances is created. The ...

Memory management is fundamental to the performance of all applications. On modern server architectures, an application’s memory allocator needs to balance memory utilization against the ability to ...

Abstract: We present an algorithm that checks behavioral consistency between an ANSI-C program and a circuit given in Verilog using Bounded Model Checking. Both the circuit and the program are unwound ...
