Book Memory Architecture Exploration for Programmable Embedded Systems

Download or read book Memory Architecture Exploration for Programmable Embedded Systems written by Peter Grun and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memory Architecture Exploration for Programmable Embedded Systems addresses efficient exploration of alternative memory architectures, assisted by a "compiler-in-the-loop" that allows effective matching of the target application to the processor-memory architecture. This new approach for memory architecture exploration replaces the traditional black-box view of the memory system and allows for aggressive co-optimization of the programmable processor together with a customized memory system. The book concludes with a set of experiments demonstrating the utility of this exploration approach. The authors perform architecture and compiler exploration for a set of large, real-life benchmarks, uncovering promising memory configurations from different perspectives, such as cost, performance and power.

Book High Performance Memory Systems

Download or read book High Performance Memory Systems written by Haldun Hadimioglu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-10-31 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The State of Memory Technology Over the past decade there has been rapid growth in the speed of micropro cessors. CPU speeds are approximately doubling every eighteen months, while main memory speed doubles about every ten years. The International Tech nology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) study suggests that memory will remain on its current growth path. The ITRS short-and long-term targets indicate continued scaling improvements at about the current rate by 2016. This translates to bit densities increasing at two times every two years until the introduction of 8 gigabit dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chips, after which densities will increase four times every five years. A similar growth pattern is forecast for other high-density chip areas and high-performance logic (e.g., microprocessors and application specific inte grated circuits (ASICs)). In the future, molecular devices, 64 gigabit DRAMs and 28 GHz clock signals are targeted. Although densities continue to grow, we still do not see significant advances that will improve memory speed. These trends have created a problem that has been labeled the Memory Wall or Memory Gap.

Book Innovations in the Memory System

Download or read book Innovations in the Memory System written by Rajeev Balasubramonian and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a tour through recent and prominent works regarding new DRAM chip designs and technologies, near data processing approaches, new memory channel architectures, techniques to tolerate the overheads of refresh and fault tolerance, security attacks and mitigations, and memory scheduling. The memory system will soon be a hub for future innovation. While conventional memory systems focused primarily on high density, other memory system metrics like energy, security, and reliability are grabbing modern research headlines. With processor performance stagnating, it is also time to consider new programming models that move some application computations into the memory system. This, in turn, will lead to feature-rich memory systems with new interfaces. The past decade has seen a number of memory system innovations that point to this future where the memory system will be much more than dense rows of unintelligent bits.

Book ARM System Developer s Guide

Download or read book ARM System Developer s Guide written by Andrew Sloss and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2004-05-10 with total page 703 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last ten years, the ARM architecture has become one of the most pervasive architectures in the world, with more than 2 billion ARM-based processors embedded in products ranging from cell phones to automotive braking systems. A world-wide community of ARM developers in semiconductor and product design companies includes software developers, system designers and hardware engineers. To date no book has directly addressed their need to develop the system and software for an ARM-based system. This text fills that gap. This book provides a comprehensive description of the operation of the ARM core from a developer's perspective with a clear emphasis on software. It demonstrates not only how to write efficient ARM software in C and assembly but also how to optimize code. Example code throughout the book can be integrated into commercial products or used as templates to enable quick creation of productive software. The book covers both the ARM and Thumb instruction sets, covers Intel's XScale Processors, outlines distinctions among the versions of the ARM architecture, demonstrates how to implement DSP algorithms, explains exception and interrupt handling, describes the cache technologies that surround the ARM cores as well as the most efficient memory management techniques. A final chapter looks forward to the future of the ARM architecture considering ARMv6, the latest change to the instruction set, which has been designed to improve the DSP and media processing capabilities of the architecture.* No other book describes the ARM core from a system and software perspective. * Author team combines extensive ARM software engineering experience with an in-depth knowledge of ARM developer needs. * Practical, executable code is fully explained in the book and available on the publisher's Website. * Includes a simple embedded operating system.

Book Exploring Performance correctness Explicitly decoupled Architectures

Download or read book Exploring Performance correctness Explicitly decoupled Architectures written by Alok Garg and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Optimizing the common case has been an adage in decades of processor design practices. However, as the system complexity and optimization techniques' sophistication have increased substantially, maintaining correctness under all situations, however unlikely, is contributing to the necessity of extra conservatism in all layers of the system design. The mounting process, voltage, and temperature variation concerns further add to the conservatism in setting operating parameters. Excessive conservatism in turn hurts performance and efficiency in the common case. However, much of the system's complexity comes from advanced performance features and may not compromise the whole system's functionality and correctness even if some components are imperfect and introduce occasional errors. In this thesis, we propose to separate performance goals from the correctness goal using an explicitly-decoupled architecture. As a proof-of-concept, we discuss two such incarnations for an out-of-order microprocessor. First, we discuss how explicitly-decoupled architecture can be used to implement an efficient mechanism to track and enforce memory dependences. Later, we discuss enhancements to improve traditional ILP (instruction-level parallelism). In both the designs a decoupled performance enhancement engine performs optimistic execution and helps an independent correctness engine by passing high-quality predictions. The lack of concern for correctness in the performance domain allows us to optimize its execution in a more effective fashion than possible in optimizing a monolithic design with correctness requirements. In this thesis we show that such a decoupled design allows significant optimization benefits and is much less sensitive to conservatism applied in the correctness domain"--Leaf vii.
