Modern many-core systems consist of large number of processing cores and introduce more and more parallelism. The (PGAS) programming model is a popular approach for exploiting this parallelism of architectures while offering flexibility of both shared memory and message passing paradigms. On the architecture design front, (NoCs) have become an integral part of the communication infrastructure due...
The predictability of execution qualities including timeliness, power consumption, and fault-tolerability is of utmost importance for the successful introduction of multi-core architectures in embedded systems requiring guarantees rather than best effort behavior. Examples are real-time and/or safety-critical parallel applications. In particular for future many-core architectures, analysis tools for...
Dependability and fault tolerance will play an ever increasing role when using future technology nodes. The paper presents a fault-tolerance strategy for invasive networks on chip (i-NoC). The strategy focuses on permanent faults, resulting from either process fluctuations or aging effects and briefly outlines counter measurements against transient faults. We propose a scalable scheme for detection...
Many-core systems provide a feasible means to build high-performance multi-application systems. They are increasingly exposed to dynamic changes due to varying and online modified application mixes, as well as unavailability of hardware resources due to thermal and power management or faults. Particularly, when applications with real-time requirements are executed, these constraints may become a problem...
Future many-core systems are envisaged to support the concurrent execution of varying mixes of different applications. Because of the vast number of binding options for such mixes on heterogeneous resources, enabling predictable application execution is far from trivial. Hybrid application mapping is an efficient way of achieving run-time predictability by combining design-time analysis of application...
Networks on Chip (NoC) come along with increased complexity from the implementation and management perspective. This leads to higher energy consumption and programming complexity of NoC architectures. This work introduces communication aware programming to address communication resource management and efficient programming of NoC architectures. A programming interface is introduced to express communication...
Networks-on-Chip have shown their scalability for future many-core systems on chip. In real world scenarios, where multiple applications are being executed over a shared NoC based platform, efficient utilization of Networks-on-Chip resources becomes challenging. Methodologies are required to ensure better utilization of NoC, especially in the scenarios, where the communication patterns of NoC traffic...
Managing future many-core architectures with hundreds of cores, running multiple applications in parallel, is very challenging. One of the major reasons is the communication overhead required to handle such a large system. Distributed management is proposed to reduce this overhead. The architecture is divided into regions which are managed separately. The instance managing the region and the applications...
Networks-on-Chip have shown their scalability for future many-core systems on chip. In real world scenarios, concurrent applications with different QoS requirements affect each other through overlapping communication. Therefore computation resources may not be efficiently utilized because the required communication resources are already occupied. Hence, an efficient resource management strategy is...
In this paper, we present the basic concepts of invasive computing and subsequently analyze the performance overheads of invasive computing applications on several multi- and many-core architectures. The nature of these is to claim and free resources dynamically at run-time to increase resource efficiency of future MPSoC architectures while not sacrificing speedup in comparison to traditional, statically...
This paper presents a novel application-driven and resource-aware mapping methodology for tree-structured streaming applications onto NoCs. This includes strategies for mapping the source of streaming applications (seed point selection), as well as embedding strategies so that each process autonomously embeds its own succeeding tasks. The proposed embedding strategies only consider the local view...
