Abstract:

Exploitation of data re-use in combination with the use of custom memory hierarchy that exploits the temporal locality of data accesses may introduce significant power savings especially for data-intensive applications. In this paper the effect of the datareuse decisions on the power dissipation but also on area and performance of multimedia applications realized on embedded cores is explored. Experimental results prove that power savings of about 35 % can be achieved through the exploitation of data re-use without introducing performance penalties in comparison to reference designs. 1
