The effect of the data-reuse transformations on power consumption, area and performance of multimedia applications realized on embedded cores is examined. As demonstrators, widely applicable video processing algorithmic kernels, namely the row-column decomposition DCT and its fast implementation found in MPEG-X, are used. Experimental results prove that significant improvements in power consumption can be achieved without performance degradation by the application of data-reuse transformations in combination with the use of a custom memory hierarchy
