Automatic Synthesis of Heterogeneous CPU-GPU Embedded Applications from a UML Profile
نویسنده
چکیده
Modern embedded systems present an ever increasing complexity and model-driven engineering has been shown to be helpful in mitigating it. In our previous works we exploited the power of model-driven engineering to develop a round-trip approach for aiding the evaluation and assessment of extra-functional properties preservation from models to code. In addition, we showed how the round-trip approach could be employed to evaluate different deployment strategies, and the focus was on homogeneous CPUbased platforms. Due to the fact that the assortment of target-platforms in the embedded domain is inevitably shifting to heterogeneous solutions, our goal is to broaden the scope of the round-trip approach towards mixed CPU-GPU configurations. In this work we focus on the modelling of heterogeneous deployment and the enhancement of the current automatic code generator to synthesize code targeting such heterogeneous configurations.

Recently, general purpose GPU (GPGPU) programming has spread rapidly after CUDA was first introduced to write parallel programs in high-level languages for NVIDIA GPUs. While a GPU exploits data parallelism very effectively, task-level parallelism is exploited as a multi-threaded program on a multicore CPU. For such a heterogeneous platform that consists of a multicore CPU and GPU, in this pape...
