THURSDAY, June 16, 2005, 10:30 AM - 12:15 PM | Room: 210CD
TOPIC AREA:  EMBEDDED SYSTEMS (mixed tools and methods)

   SESSION 42
  Embedded Hardware and System Software
  Chair: Eugenio Villar - Universidad de Cantabria, Santander, Spain
  Organizers: Chi-Ying Tsui, Pai Chou

  This session includes four papers describing embedded system hardware and software closely linked to that hardware. The first paper proposes an architecture which is relevant for fast internet routing. It is followed by a paper presenting an approach for speech recognition that takes the limited performance of portable devices into account. The third paper comprises algorithms for low-overhead fault-tolerant execution of Java programs. The final paper addresses multiprocessor embedded systems which often have processor-local caches and a shared memory. If the system's code is available at design time, we can maximize cache hits by rearranging code in memory.
