Memory binding for performance optimization of control-flow intensive behavioral descriptions.

This paper presents a memory binding algorithm for behaviors, used in application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), that are characterized by the presence of conditionals and deeply nested loops that access memory extensively through arrays. Unlike previous works, this algorithm examines the eff...
