As the SIMD width of modern microprocessors has been widening for keeping up with the computational demand for HPC systems, recently the vector architecture comes back to spotlight. Besides, a modern vector architecture that has been keeping a large SIMD width and a high B/F ratio has survived and evolved in the HPC community. In this paper, to clarify the potential of the modern vector architecture,...
Modern memory systems are equipped with multiple channels to achieve a higher memory bandwidth. Since the multi-channel memory system focuses on achieving a high memory bandwidth, data are allocated to all the channels. Hence, when the memory system is accessed, all the channels are activated until the next DRAM refresh starts. Therefore, when executing compute-intensive applications that do not need...
Achieving a high sustained simulation performance is the most important concern in the HPC community. To this end, many kinds of HPC system architectures have been proposed, and the diversity of the HPC systems grows rapidly. Under this circumstance, a vector-parallel supercomputer SX-ACE has been designed to achieve a high sustained performance of memory-intensive applications by providing a high...
Although modern SIMD extensions enable to improve the performance of MMAs, the limited parallel-processing capability and low memory bandwidth are their drawbacks to execute next generation MMAs. This paper proposes a novel media-oriented vector architectural extension (MVPX) to aim at accelerating a wide range of next generation MMAs. MVPX consists of an out-of-order vector processing mechanism (OVPM)...
