Split Boot - True Network-Based Booting on Heterogeneous MPSoCs

Programming Heterogeneous MPSoCs using MAPS

Programming heterogeneous MPSoCs (Multi-Processor Systems on Chip) is a grand challenge for SoC providers and users today. The HW integration level of commercial MPSoC platforms increases at a fast pace. However, lacking tools to support MPSoC programming results in a much slower pace of SW productivity, which hampers deploying MPSoCs significantly. In this paper, we introduce the MAPS (MPSoC A...

A model-based de- sign approach for heterogeneous NoC- based MPSoCs on FP- GA

Resource-awareness on heterogeneous MPSoCs for image processing

Multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) designs offer a lot of computational power assembled in a compact design. The computing power of MPSoCs can be further augmented by adding massively parallel processor arrays (MPPA) and specialized hardware with instruction-set extensions. On-chip MPPAs can be used to accelerate low-level image-processing algorithms with massive inherent parallelism. Howeve...

Automatic Data Mapping for Heterogeneous MPSoCs

Heterogeneous multiprocessor system-on-a-chip (MPSoC) becomes an important platform to accelerate applications. However, programming tools and compilation techniques for memory management on MPSoCs still lag behind. This paper presents a data mapping framework to orchestrate the data movement between local memory and off-chip memory. Data alignment, data distribution, computation distribution a...

A Mapping Framework Based on Packing for Design Space Exploration of Heterogeneous MPSoCs

The computational demand of signal processing algorithms is rising continuously. Heterogeneous embedded multiprocessor systems-on-chips are one solution to satisfy this demand. But to be able to take advantage of these systems, new strategies are required to map applications to such a system and to evaluate the systems performance at a very early design stage. We will present a framework for st...
