   SESSION 39
  Parallelism and Memory Optimizations
  Chair: Steven Tjiang - Google, Mountain View, CA
  Organizers: Steven Tjiang, Vincent Mooney

  With the emergence of chip multiprocessors, parallelism and memory optimizations become critical for efficient deployment of embedded software. Broadly speaking, memory issues cross the software/hardware boundary, and so several papers in this session address memory optimization from the software and hardware perspectives. Novel and interesting techniques will pique the attendees' interests in this session.
