Eclipse: Heterogeneous Multiprocessor Architecture for Flexible Media Processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Eclipse is a heterogeneous multiprocessor architecture for high-performance media processing, including high-definition MPEG encoding/decoding. The scalable architecture framework concurrently executes media processing kernels in function-specific multi-tasking coprocessors and a media processor, communicating via on-chip memory. Eclipse instances combine application configuration flexibility with the efficiency of function-specific hardware .

Eclipse: A Heterogeneous Multiprocessor Architecture for Flexible Media Processing
Eclipse defines a heterogeneous multiprocessor architecture template for data-dependent stream processing. Intended as a scalable and flexible subsystem of forthcoming media-processing systems-on-a-chip, Eclipse combines application configuration flexibility with the efficiency of function-specific hardware, or ‘coprocessors’. The multi-tasking coprocessors concurrently execute application task...

Eclipse defines a heterogeneous multiprocessor architecture for high-performance streaming media as a subsystem of a system-on-silicon platform for the consumer electronics market. The scalable architecture template supports multiple function-specific coprocessors that operate in parallel and independently. Each coprocessor is multi-tasking, allowing multiple applications to proceed concurrentl...
متن کاملSING: A Multiprocessor System-on-Chip Design and System Generation Tool
Increasingly complex embedded systems are being designed onto single chip systems that contain multiple parallel processing elements and memories. The design and implementation of these multiprocessor on-chip architectures is time consuming, delaying the time to market. Manual hardware design is also error-prone, requiring careful verification and further delaying the time to market. In order t...
متن کاملPerformance Modelling of Multiprocessor System with one High Performance Server
Multiprocessor system models at present are very important and widely used in modelling transaction processing systems, communication networks, mobile networks, and flexible machine shops with groups of machines. Heterogeneous processors system with one faster main server and several identical servers are studied. In this paper reconfiguration and rebooting delays are considered to study the pe...
