  1. 1. Understanding Multicore Performance : Efficient Memory System Modeling and Simulation

    Author : Andreas Sandberg; Erik Hagersten; David Black-Schaffer; David A. Wood; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer Architecture; Simulation; Modeling; Sampling; Caches; Memory Systems; gem5; Parallel Simulation; Virtualization; Sampling; Multicore; Datavetenskap; Computer Science;

    Abstract : To increase performance, modern processors employ complex techniques such as out-of-order pipelines and deep cache hierarchies. While the increasing complexity has paid off in performance, it has become harder to accurately predict the effects of hardware/software optimizations in such systems. READ MORE

  2. 2. Performance Analysis of Application-Specific Multicore Systems on Chip

    Author : Iyad Al Khatib; Axel Jantsch; Jari Nurmi; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Multicore; System on Chip; Performance; Information technology; Informationsteknik;

    Abstract : The last two decades have witnessed the birth of revolutionary technologies in data communications including wireless technologies, System on Chip (SoC), Multi Processor SoC (MPSoC), Network on Chip (NoC), and more. At the same time we have witnessed that performance does not always keep pace with expectations in many services like multimediaservices and biomedical applications. READ MORE

  3. 3. Efficient Memory Modeling During Simulation and Native Execution

    Author : Nikos Nikoleris; Erik Hagersten; Lieven Eeckhout; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; performance analysis; cache performance; multicore performance; memory system; memory bandwidth; memory contention; performance prediction; multi-threading; multiprocessing systems; program diagnostics; commodity multicores; multithreaded program resource requirements; performance counters; scalability bottleneck; scalability improvement; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Application performance on computer processors depends on a number of complex architectural and microarchitectural design decisions. Consequently, computer architects rely on performance modeling to improve future processors without building prototypes. READ MORE

  4. 4. Optimizing Performance in Highly Utilized Multicores with Intelligent Prefetching

    Author : Muneeb Khan; Erik Hagersten; David Black-Schaffer; Bengt Jonsson; Per Stenström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Performance; Optimization; Prefetching; multicore; memory hierarchy; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Modern processors apply sophisticated techniques, such as deep cache hierarchies and hardware prefetching, to increase performance. Such complex hardware structures have helped improve performance in general, however, their full potential is not realized as software often utilizes the memory hierarchy inefficiently. READ MORE

  5. 5. CPU Resource Management and Noise Filtering for PID Control

    Author : Vanessa Romero Segovia; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; resource management; embedded systems; real-time systems; multimedia; multicore; measurement noise; filtering; trade-offs; robustness; performance; SDU; noise gain; PID control;

    Abstract : The first part of the thesis deals with adaptive CPU resource management for multicore platforms. The work was done as a part of the resource manager component of the adaptive resource management framework implemented in the European ACTORS project. The framework dynamically allocates CPU resources for the applications. READ MORE
