Memory is a critical design consideration in current data-intensive DNN accelerators, as it profoundly determines energy consumption, bandwidth requirements, and area costs. As DNN structures become more complex, a larger on-chip memory…

Executing multiple applications on a single MPSoC brings the major challenge of satisfying multiple quality requirements regarding real-time, energy, etc. Hybrid application mapping denotes the combination of design-time analysis with…

Some Deep Neural Networks (DNN) have what we call lanes, or they can be reorganized as such. Lanes are paths in the network which are data-independent and typically learn different features or add resilience to the network. Given their…

Deep neural network (DNN) inference is increasingly being executed on mobile and embedded platforms due to low latency and better privacy. However, efficient deployment on these platforms is challenging due to the intensive computation and…

Almost in every heavily computation-dependent application, from 6G communication systems to autonomous driving platforms, a large portion of computing should be near to the client side. Edge computing (AI at Edge) in mobile devices is one…

Binarized Neural Networks (BNNs) significantly reduce the computation and memory demands with binarized weights and activations compared to full-precision NNs. Executing a layer in a BNN on different devices of a heterogeneous…
