Analysing and improving the performance of software code for Real Time Embedded systems

Software Optimization of Vision-Based Around View Monitoring System on Embedded Platform

“…Generally, optimization techniques on embedded can be summarized to several categories such as compiler optimization, source code modification, memory optimization and hardware-level optimization (ARM, 2014). Several pieces of research focused on optimization of the developed system that utilizes the embedded multi-core system (Ma & Wang, 2016), memory management (Muck & Frohlich, 2011;Lei & Xiao-ya, 2011), hardware and system-level optimization (Dekkiche et al, 2016;Dedeoğlu et al, 2011;Singhal et al, 2012) and software optimization (Park et al, 2013;Joshi & Gurumurthy, 2014).…”

“…Based on research by Park et al (2013) and Joshi & Gurumurthy (2014), loop transformation techniques generally reduce the number of iterations and loop overhead that assist in increasing the execution time and code density of applications running on embedded ARM. Examples of loop transformations are loop termination, loop unrolling, loop reversal, loop unswitching, and loop fusion.…”
