Abstract

This paper presents for the first time low energy simultaneousmemory and register allocation. A minimum cost network flowapproach is used to efficiently solve for minimum energy dissipationsolutions in polynomial time. Results show that estimatedenergy improvements of 1.4 to 2.5 times over previous researchare obtained. This research is important for industry since energydissipation is minimized without requiring an increase in cost.
