Multi-Objective Design Space Exploration of Multiprocessor Soc Architectures
Author: Multi-objective Design Space Exploration of Multiprocessor SoC Architectures
Author: Cristina SilvanoPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441988378
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
This book serves as a reference for researchers and designers in Embedded Systems who need to explore design alternatives. It provides a design space exploration methodology for the analysis of system characteristics and the selection of the most appropriate architectural solution to satisfy requirements in terms of performance, power consumption, number of required resources, etc. Coverage focuses on the design of complex multimedia applications, where the choice of the optimal design alternative in terms of application/architecture pair is too complex to be pursued through a full search comparison, especially because of the multi-objective nature of the designer’s goal, the simulation time required and the number of parameters of the multi-core architecture to be optimized concurrently.
Multiprocessor Systems on Chip
Author: Torsten KempfPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441981535
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
This book gives a comprehensive introduction to the design challenges of MPSoC platforms, focusing on early design space exploration. It defines an iterative methodology to increase the abstraction level so that evaluation of design decisions can be performed earlier in the design process. These techniques enable exploration on the system level before undertaking time- and cost-intensive development.
System-level Modelling and Design Space Exploration for Multiprocessor Embedded System-on-chip Architectures
Author: Cagkan ErbasPublisher: Amsterdam University Press
ISBN: 9056294555
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Modern embedded systems come with contradictory design constraints. On one hand, these systems often target mass production and battery-based devices, and therefore should be cheap and power efficient. On the other hand, they still need to show high (sometimes real-time) performance, and often support multiple applications and standards which requires high programmability. This wide spectrum of design requirements leads to complex heterogeneous System-on-Chip (SoC) architectures -- consisting of several types of processors from fully programmable microprocessors to configurable processing cores and customized hardware components, integrated on a single chip. This study targets such multiprocessor embedded systems and strives to develop algorithms, methods, and tools to deal with a number of fundamental problems which are encountered by the system designers during the early design stages.
Pipelined Multiprocessor System-on-Chip for Multimedia
Author: Haris JavaidPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3319011138
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
This book describes analytical models and estimation methods to enhance performance estimation of pipelined multiprocessor systems-on-chip (MPSoCs). A framework is introduced for both design-time and run-time optimizations. For design space exploration, several algorithms are presented to minimize the area footprint of a pipelined MPSoC under a latency or a throughput constraint. A novel adaptive pipelined MPSoC architecture is described, where idle processors are transitioned into low-power states at run-time to reduce energy consumption. Multi-mode pipelined MPSoCs are introduced, where multiple pipelined MPSoCs optimized separately are merged into a single pipelined MPSoC, enabling further reduction of the area footprint by sharing the processors and communication buffers. Readers will benefit from the authors’ combined use of analytical models, estimation methods and exploration algorithms and will be enabled to explore billions of design points in a few minutes.

Low Power Networks-on-Chip
Author: Cristina SilvanoPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 144196911X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
In recent years, both Networks-on-Chip, as an architectural solution for high-speed interconnect, and power consumption, as a key design constraint, have continued to gain interest in the design and research communities. This book offers a single-source reference to some of the most important design techniques proposed in the context of low-power design for networks-on-chip architectures.

Innovative Research and Applications in Next-Generation High Performance Computing
Author: Hassan, Qusay F.Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN: 1522502882
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
High-performance computing (HPC) describes the use of connected computing units to perform complex tasks. It relies on parallelization techniques and algorithms to synchronize these disparate units in order to perform faster than a single processor could, alone. Used in industries from medicine and research to military and higher education, this method of computing allows for users to complete complex data-intensive tasks. This field has undergone many changes over the past decade, and will continue to grow in popularity in the coming years. Innovative Research Applications in Next-Generation High Performance Computing aims to address the future challenges, advances, and applications of HPC and related technologies. As the need for such processors increases, so does the importance of developing new ways to optimize the performance of these supercomputers. This timely publication provides comprehensive information for researchers, students in ICT, program developers, military and government organizations, and business professionals.
