Editorial Review:

The design of embedded systems warrants a new perspective because of the following two reasons: Firstly, slow and energy inefficient memory hierarchies have already become the bottleneck of the embedded systems. It is documented in the literature as the memory wall problem. Secondly, the software running on the contemporary embedded devices is becoming increasingly complex. It is also well understood that no silver bullet exists to solve the memory wall problem. Therefore, this book explores a collaborative approach by proposing novel memory hierarchies and software optimization techniques for the optimal utilization of these memory hierarchies. Linking memory architecture design with memory-architecture aware compilation results in fast, energy-efficient and timing predictable memory accesses.

The evaluation of the optimization techniques using real-life benchmarks for a single processor system, a multiprocessor system-on-chip (SoC) and for a digital signal processor system, reports significant reductions in the energy consumption and performance improvement of these systems. The book presents a wide range of optimizations, progressively increasing in the complexity of analysis and of memory hierarchies. The final chapter covers optimization techniques for applications consisting of multiple processes found in most modern embedded devices.

Advanced Memory Optimization Techniques for Low Power Embedded Processors is designed for researchers, complier writers and embedded system designers / architects who wish to optimize the energy and performance characteristics of the memory subsystem.

Editorial Review:

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th Asia-Pacific Computer Systems Architecture Conference, ACSAC 2006, held in Shanghai in September 2006.

The 60 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and they address issues as processor and network design, reconfigurable computing and operating systems, including both low- level design issues in hardware and systems. There are papers describing large and significant computer-based infrastructure projects and also many papers which reflect the move to concurrency on chip in multi-core devices and many more are concerned with the significant problems industry will face with stricter budgets in power dissipation.

Editorial Review:

A silicon compiler is a software system which can automatically generate an integrated circuit from a user's specification.
Anatomy of a Silicon Compiler examines one such compiler in detail, covering the basic framework and design entry, the actual algorithms and libraries which are used, the approach to verification and testing, behavioral synthesis tools and several applications which demonstrate the system's capabilities.

Bad code, low on detail 2 out of 5 stars.
6 of 6 people found this review helpful.

Though I admittely have the previous print of this book, I am fairly convinced that my judgements of that book hold true for this edition. The C++ code presented here is some of the worst I have ever seen. The earlier chapters actually try to be a crashcourse C++. I got the distinct feeling in later chapters that the author's full knowledge of this wonderful language are unfortunately contained therein.

The detail level of this book is saddeningly low. Being 112 pages (194 in my edition) this is hardly a surprise anymore.

Long story short, if you want to see someone write bad but well documented code for a simple compiler, by all means buy this. If you want to know how things actually work, more books will be a necessity. My suggestion for theory: Dragon Book (Aho et al.) and add Holub's "Compiler Design in C" for a practical hands-on, but in-depth approach.

Editorial Review:

Holmes satisfies the dual demand for an introduction to compilers and a hands-on compiler construction project manual in The Object-Oriented Compiler Workbook. This book details the construction process of a fundamental, yet functional compiler, so that readers learn by actually doing. It uses C++ as the implementation language, the most popular Object Oriented language, and compiles a tiny subset of Pascal, resulting in source language constructs that are already a part of most readers' experience. It offers extensive figures detailing the behavior of the compiler, especially as it relates to the parse tree. It supplies complete source codes for example compiler listed as an appendix and available by FTP.
