Multiprocessing is ubiquitous in today’s electronic systems. The key benefits are faster processing due to parallel execution and improved operating characteristics such as power, thermal and latency ...
In a system-on-chip multiprocessor design, the software must be partitioned carefully. Too much interaction or dependence between processors can erase any advantages an embedded multiprocessor design ...
In the first part of this series, we explained the limitations of 20th-century multiprocessors and showed how to break through those limitations. In this second part, we explore the benefits of ...
