Traditional design techniques for embedded systems apply transformations on the source code to optimize hardware-related cost factors.
IBM has 19 laboratories with more than 2,400 programmers working on Java applications and Java optimized hardware worldwide.
To map these functions into efficient units on the FPGA board, we use a table-based uniform polynomial approximation approach, based on Dong-U Lee's work on optimizing hardware function evaluation [16].
Even though Apple typically optimizes hardware and software to offer the same battery life — or sometimes a slight improvement — in refreshed devices it does not offer headline-grabbing, orders of magnitude improvements.
The InfoSight tool can give them insight into how to optimize the hardware these applications are running on.
In order to optimize the hardware architecture and performance, the precision is analyzed using fixed-point simulation.
The most effective way to make better chess machines is to optimize their hardware rather than software.
Thus, it is crucial to design control methods in order to optimize the hardware utilization and offer high reconfigurability, flexibility and adaptability.
In MR-MC WMNs, the cost of wireless radios with multiple transceivers is still very high, thus it is necessary to optimize the hardware design so as to reduce the cost.
By mapping functionality to FPGAs, the computer designer can optimize the hardware for a specific application resulting in acceleration rates of several orders of magnitude over general-purpose computers.
