Mapping of applications to MPSoCs

The advent of embedded many-core architectures results in the need to come up with techniques for mapping embedded applications onto such architectures. This paper presents a representative set of such techniques. The techniques focus on optimizing performance, temperature distribution, reliability and fault tolerance for various models.
