F. Catthoor et al., Code transformations for data transfer and storage exploration preprocessing in multimedia processors, IEEE DES T, 18(3), 2001, pp. 70-82
Platform-independent source code transformations can greatly help alleviate
the data-transfer and storage bottleneck. This article covers global data-
flow, loop, and data-reuse-related transformations, and discusses their eff
ect on data transfer and storage, processor partitioning, and parallelizati
on.
