We present an accurate online scalability prediction model for data-parallel programs on NUMA many-core systems. Memory contention is considered to be the major limiting factor of program scalability as data parallelism limits the amount of synchronization or data dependencies between parallel work units. Reflecting the architecture of NUMA systems, contention is modeled at the last-level caches of...
Within this paper an adaptive approach for parallel simulation of SystemC RTL models on future many-core architectures like the Single-chip Cloud Computer (SCC) from Intel is presented. It is based on a configurable parallel SystemC kernel that preserves the partial order defined by the SystemC delta cycles while avoiding global synchronization as far as possible. The underlying algorithm relies on...
Traditional means of gathering performance data are tracing, which is limited by the available storage, and profiling, which has limited accuracy. Performance modeling is often used to interpret the tracing data and generate performance predictions. We aim to complement the traditional data collection mechanisms with online performance modeling, a method that generates performance models while the...
Emergent heterogeneous systems must be optimized for both power and performance at exascale. Massive parallelism combined with complex memory hierarchies form a barrier to efficient application and architecture design. These challenges are exacerbated with GPUs as parallelism increases orders of magnitude and power consumption can easily double. Models have been proposed to isolate power and performance...
This paper links a well-investigated formalism for describing dynamic structured discrete event systems and a modelling methodology for runtime reconfigurable systems. The theory behind dynamic structured discrete event systems is used to back a generic SystemC simulation model derived from and developed for runtime reconfigurable systems. The coupling of formalism and model effects in particular...
