Scratchpad-based Memory Allocation Techniques for Embedded Software

这项研究旨在开发自动内存分配算法，以最大限度地提高便签式存储器的有效利用率，从而显著提高嵌入式应用的性能和能量使用。该项目的成果将为澳大利亚的许多行业提供通用解决方案，包括电信、网络管理、传感器网络、汽车和仪表/测量，这些行业普遍使用嵌入式系统。因此，该项目将对优先领域(建设和改造澳大利亚工业的前沿技术)做出重大贡献，因此符合其优先目标：前沿技术。

This research aims at developing automatic memory allocation algorithms to maximise the effective utilisation of scratchpad memories, which will lead to significantly improved performance and energy usage in embedded applications. The outcomes of this project will provide generic solutions to many Australia-based industries, including telecommunication, network management, sensor networks, automotive and instrumentation/measurement, where embedded systems are ubiquitously used. Therefore, this project will significantly contribute to the Priority Area (Frontier Technologies for Building and Transforming Australian Industries), hence fits into its Priority Goal: Frontier Technologies.
