Memory Management and Code Compression Technology

Effective management of RAM and ROM controls costs, extends battery life and in many instances, can reduce board size requirements. DSPLinux offers advanced Code Compression Technology with greater than 2:1 compression without requiring developers to change their software. DSPLinux reduces memory requirements and minimizes the load on the ARM processor by storing data and applications in a compressed file system and decompressing them as needed via the DSP. DSPLinux also monitors memory and actively reduces fragmentation to conserve system resources and optimize embedded system performance.
