Abstract

This paper proposes a SESAME, which is a Space-Efficient Stack Allocation MEchanism for multi-threaded sensor operating systems. It adaptively adjusts the stack size by allocating or releasing additional stack frame based on the amount of each function's stack usage information. Our experimental results show that the SESAME significantly minimizes spatial overhead of thread's stacks with tolerable time overhead compared with fixed stack allocation mechanism of the multi-threaded sensor operating systems.
