摘要

This paper presents a new approach for improving energy consumption of compiler generated software by using on-chip Scratch-Pad RAM more efficiently. This memory allocation technique moves program parts (functions or basic blocks and global data objects) into the limited Scratch-Pad RAM. Experimental results show that this technique saves up to 80% of the total energy consumption depending on the application, the system architecture and the size of the Scratch-Pad RAM.
