面向SoC任务分配的应用程序存储分析方法

The Memory Size Estimation of Application Programs for the SoC Task Partitioning

存储设计是影响SoC系统性能和功耗的重要因素,分析、估计应用程序的存储需求量有助于SoC设计与优化。本文着重研究面向SoC任务分配时的应用程序存储需求量分析方法。首先介绍了面向任务分配的应用程序存储分析框架,然后较具体地论述了所提出的面向SoC任务分配的多粒度应用程序存储分析方法的原理和算法,最后通过一个应用实例论证了方法的有效性。

Memory modules dominate the cost, performance, and power of the SoC systems. It is helpful for SoC design and optimization to estimate the memory requirements of application programs. This paper puts forward a memory size estimation method with multi-granularity for the SoC tasks partitioning. Firstly, the framework of the memory size estimation of application programs is presented. Then, the memory size estimation method for application programs is proposed with basic blocks, loops and functions. Finally, a case study demonstrates the efficiency of this method.
