This book explores break-through approaches to tackling and
mitigating the well-known problems of compiler optimization using
design space exploration and machine learning techniques. It
demonstrates that not all the optimization passes are suitable for
use within an optimization sequence and that, in fact, many of the
available passes tend to counteract one another. After providing a
comprehensive survey of currently available methodologies,
including many experimental comparisons with state-of-the-art
compiler frameworks, the book describes new approaches to solving
the problem of selecting the best compiler optimizations and the
phase-ordering problem, allowing readers to overcome the enormous
complexity of choosing the right order of optimizations for each
code segment in an application. As such, the book offers a valuable
resource for a broad readership, including researchers interested
in Computer Architecture, Electronic Design Automation and Machine
Learning, as well as computer architects and compiler developers.
This book explores near-threshold computing (NTC), a design-space
using techniques to run digital chips (processors) near the lowest
possible voltage. Readers will be enabled with specific techniques
to design chips that are extremely robust; tolerating variability
and resilient against errors. Variability-aware voltage and
frequency allocation schemes will be presented that will provide
performance guarantees, when moving toward near-threshold manycore
chips. * Provides an introduction to near-threshold computing,
enabling reader with a variety of tools to face the challenges of
the power/utilization wall; * Demonstrates how to design efficient
voltage regulation, so that each region of the chip can operate at
the most efficient voltage and frequency point; * Investigates how
performance guarantees can be ensured when moving towards NTC
manycores through variability-aware voltage and frequency
allocation schemes.

This book serves as a reference for researchers and designers in
Embedded Systems who need to explore design alternatives. It
provides a design space exploration methodology for the analysis of
system characteristics and the selection of the most appropriate
architectural solution to satisfy requirements in terms of
performance, power consumption, number of required resources, etc.
Coverage focuses on the design of complex multimedia applications,
where the choice of the optimal design alternative in terms of
application/architecture pair is too complex to be pursued through
a full search comparison, especially because of the multi-objective
nature of the designer's goal, the simulation time required and the
number of parameters of the multi-core architecture to be optimized
concurrently.
In recent years, both Networks-on-Chip, as an architectural
solution for high-speed interconnect, and power consumption, as a
key design constraint, have continued to gain interest in the
design and research communities. This book offers a single-source
reference to some of the most important design techniques proposed
in the context of low-power design for networks-on-chip
architectures.
This volume introduces innovative power estimation and
optimization methodologies to support the design of low power
embedded systems based on high-performance VLIW microprocessors. A
VLIW processor is a (generally) pipelined processor that can
execute, in each clock cycle, a set of explicitly parallel
operations.

from academia and industry, sharing ideas in a 3-day lively
discussion on the
quietandinspiringnorthernmountainsideoftheMediterraneanislandofSamos.
The workshopmeeting is one of two co-locatedevents (the other event
being the IC-SAMOS).Asatradition,
theworkshopfeaturespresentationsinthemorning, while after lunch all
kinds of informal discussions and nut-cracking gatherings take
place. The workshop is unique in the sense that not only solved
research problems are presented and discussed but also (partly)
unsolved problems and in-depth topical reviews can be unleashed in
the scienti?c arena. Consequently, the workshopprovidesthe
participantswithanenvironmentwherecollaboration rather than
competition is fostered. The SAMOS conference and workshop were
established in 2001 by Stamatis Vassiliadis with the goals outlined
above in mind, and located on Samos, one of the most beautiful
islands of the Aegean. The rich historical and cultural environment
of the island, coupled with the intimate atmosphereandthe
slowpaceofasmallvillagebythe seainthe middle of the Greek summer,
provide a very conducive environment where ideas can be exchanged
and shared freely
Transactions on HiPEAC aims at the timely dissemination of research
contributions in computer architecture and compilation methods for
high-performance embedded computer systems. Recognizing the
convergence of embedded and general-purpose computer systems, this
journal publishes original research on systems targeted at specific
computing tasks as well as systems with broad application bases.
The scope of the journal therefore covers all aspects of computer
architecture, code generation and compiler optimization methods of
interest to researchers and practitioners designing future embedded
systems. This 5th issue contains extended versions of papers by the
best paper award candidates of IC-SAMOS 2009 and the SAMOS 2009
Workshop, colocated events of the 9th International Symposium on
Systems, Architectures, Modeling and Simulation, SAMOS 2009, held
in Samos, Greece, in 2009. The 7 papers included in this volume
were carefully reviewed and selected. The papers cover research on
embedded processor hardware/software design and integration and
present challenging research trends.
