An Effective Data Placement Methodology for Data Dominant Applications Employing ASIP

Any embedded system contains both on-chip and off-chip memory modules with different access times. During system integration, the decision to map crit ical data on to faster memories is crucial. In order to obtain good performance targeting less amounts of memory, the data buffers of the application need to be p laced carefu lly in different types of memo ry. This data placement problem is addressed with the help of a data do minated embedded application.
