Abstract :
On chip memories provide fast and energy efficient storage for code and data in comparison to caches or external memories. We present techniques and algorithms that allow for an automated use of on chip memory for code blocks of instructions which are dynamically scheduled at runtime to increase performance and reduce power consumption.
