Software and Compiler Optimization for Microcontrollers, Embedded Processors, and DSPs
Michael C. Brogioli Polymathic Consulting, Austin, TX, United States
Abstract
Code optimization is a critical step in the development process as it directly impacts the ability of the system to do its intended job. Code that executes faster means more channels, more work performed, and competitive advantage. Code that executes in less memory enables more application features to fit into the cell phone. Code that executes with less overall power consumption increases battery life or reduces money spent on powering a base station. This chapter is intended to help programmers write the most efficient code possible, whether measured in processor cycles, memory, ...
