An Analysis of an Improved Bus-based Multiprocessor Architecture
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper analyses the effectiveness of a hybrid multiprocessing/multicomputing architecture that is based upon a single-board-computer multiprocessor (SBCM) architecture. Based upon empirical analysis using discrete event simulations and Monte Carlo techniques, this hybrid architecture, called the enhanced single-board-computer multiprocessor (ESBCM), is shown to have improved performance and scalability characteristics over current SBCM designs.

A Comparison of Five Different Multiprocessor SoC Bus Architectures
The performance of a system, especially a multiprocessor system, heavily depends upon the efficiency of its bus architecture. In System-on-a-Chip (SoC), the bus architecture can be devised with advantages such as shorter propagation delay (resulting in a faster bus clock), larger bus width, and multiple buses. This paper presents five different SoC bus architectures for a multiprocessor system:...
متن کاملGlobal Bus Design of a Bus-Based COMA Multiprocessor DICE
DICE is a shared-bus multiprocessor based on a distributed shared-memory architecture, known as Cache-Only Memory Architecture (COMA). Unlike previous COMA proposals for large-scale multiprocessing, DICE utilizes the COMA to effectively decrease the gap between modern high-performance microprocessors and the bus. As microprocessors become faster and demand more bandwidth, the already limited sc...

DICE is a shared-bus multiprocessor based on a distributed shared-memory architecture, known as cache-only memory architecture (COMA). Unlike previous COMA proposals for large-scale multiprocessing, DICE utilizes COMA to effectively decrease the speed gap between modem high-performance microprocessors and the bus. DICE tries to optimize COMA for a shared-bus medium, in particular to reduce detr...
