A latency simulator for many-core systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present MCoreSim, an open-source simulation framework for massively parallel and many-core computing systems based on OMNeT++. The simulator supports tile-based architectures with distributed memory and meshbased interconnects. Its primary purpose is to allow for investigations on the impact of the heterogeneous in-chip communication latencies, as arising due to the network-on-a-chip structure of future and emerging many-core processors, on the performance of the hosted applications. We plan to use MCoreSim to study the variety of possible choices in realizing a suitable software stack for these systems, especially in terms of the choices at the kernel design level.

Design of a Low-Latency Router Based on Virtual Output Queuing and Bypass Channels for Wireless Network-on-Chip
Wireless network-on-chip (WiNoC) is considered as a novel approach for designing future multi-core systems. In WiNoCs, wireless routers (WRs) utilize high-bandwidth wireless links to reduce the transmission delay between the long distance nodes. When the network traffic loads increase, a large number of packets will be sent into the wired and wireless links and can...
متن کاملSimulating the future kilo-x86-64 core processors and their infrastructure
The continuous improvements offered by the silicon technology enables the integration of always increasing number of cores on a single chip. Following this trend, it is expected to approach microprocessor architectures composed of thousands of cores (i.e., kilo-core architectures) in the next future. To cope with the increasing demand for high performance systems, many-core designs rely on inte...

متن کاملEfficient parallelization of the genetic algorithm solution of traveling salesman problem on multi-core and many-core systems
Efficient parallelization of genetic algorithms (GAs) on state-of-the-art multi-threading or many-threading platforms is a challenge due to the difficulty of schedulation of hardware resources regarding the concurrency of threads. In this paper, for resolving the problem, a novel method is proposed, which parallelizes the GA by designing three concurrent kernels, each of which running some depe...
