Abstract

Abstract: We have extracted run-time memory access traces from the Mediabench benchmark set. These traces exhibit a high degree of repetition. We propose an adaptive bus coding scheme that will reduce transition activity by exploiting value repetition. For this scheme, we introduce an extra bitline similar to bus-invert coding.
