TL;DR: This paper proposes an efficient framework to enforce a transparent internal knowledge representation in BP-networks during training that will be forced to group around three possible values, namely 1, 0 and 0.5.

TL;DR: A discrete Hopfield neural network approach for implementing the RTOS–Power partitioning is proposed, where a novel energy function, operating equation and coefficients of the neural network are redefined and can achieve higher energy savings up to 60% at relatively low costs of less than 4k PLBs.
Abstract: The RTOS (Real-Time Operating System) is a critical component in the SoC (System-on-a-Chip), which is the main body for consuming total system energy. Power optimization based on hardware–software partitioning of a RTOS (RTOS–Power partitioning) can significantly minimize the energy consumption of a SoC. This paper presents a new model for RTOS–Power partitioning, which helps in understanding the essence of the RTOS–Power partitioning techniques. A discrete Hopfield neural network approach for implementing the RTOS–Power partitioning is proposed, where a novel energy function, operating equation and coefficients of the neural network are redefined. Simulations are carried out with comparison to other optimization techniques. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve higher energy savings up to 60% at relatively low costs of less than 4k PLBs while increasing the performance compared to the purely software realized SoC–RTOS.
