Virtualizing performance asymmetric multi-core systems

Virtualizing Heterogeneous Many-core Platforms

Introduction. The relentless progress of Moore’s Law has periodically inspired major innovations – both in hardware and software – at specific points in time to keep performance growth on pace with transistor density. Industry has reached another such point as it encounters intellectual and engineering challenges in the form of power dissipation, processor-memory performance gap, limits to inst...

Scheduling Algorithms for Asymmetric Multi-core Processors

— Growing power dissipation due to high performance requirement of processor suggests multicore processor technology, which has become the technology for present and next decade. Research advocates asymmetric multi-core processor system for better utilization of chip real state. However, asymmetric multi core architecture poses a new challenge to operating system scheduler, which traditionally ...

MESS: Memory Performance Debugging on Embedded Multi-core Systems

Multi-core processors have penetrated the modern computing platforms in several dimensions. Desktop machines, handheld devices and advanced embedded systems are now equipped with high-performance and energy-efficient multi-core systems. Multi-core systems aim to achieve high-performance via running computations in parallel. However, such systems also employ shared resources, such as shared cach...
