Application of Task Concurrency Management on Dynamically Reconfigurable Hardware Platforms
نویسندگان
چکیده
with the task placement problem in a straight way that allows us to go one step further, we have adopted an interconnection-network-based DRHW mode, which includes Operating System support to reallocate tasks at run-time. On top of this model we have applied an emerging task concurrency management (TCM) methodology initially developed for multiprocessor platforms with promising results. Moreover, we have identified the next step needed to create a specific

Run-Time Minimization of Reconfiguration Overhead in Dynamically Reconfigurable Systems
Dynamically Reconfigurable Hardware (DRHW) can take advantage of its reconfiguration capability to adapt at run-time its performance and its energy consumption. However, due to the lack of programming support for dynamic task placement on these platforms, little previous work has been presented studying these run-time performance/power trade-offs. To cope with the task placement problem we have...
متن کاملMessage-Passing Concurrency for Scalable, Stateful, Reconfigurable Middleware
Message-passing concurrency (MPC) is increasingly being used to build systems software that scales well on multi-core hardware. Functional programming implementations of MPC, such as Erlang, have also leveraged their stateless nature to build middleware that is not just scalable, but also dynamically reconfigurable. However, many middleware platforms lend themselves more naturally to a stateful...
متن کاملThe Erlangen Slot Machine: A Dynamically Reconfigurable FPGA-based Computer
Computer architects have been studying the dynamically reconfigurable computer [1] for a number of years. New capabilities such as on-demand computing power, self-adaptiveness and self-optimization capabilities by restructuring the hardware on the fly at run-time is seen as a driving technology factor for current research initiatives such as autonomic [2, 3] and organic computing [4, 5]. Much r...
متن کاملTask Scheduling for Context Minimization in Dynamically Reconfigurable Platforms
Dynamically reconfigurable hardware provides useful means to reduce the time-to-prototype and even the time-to-market in product designs. It also offers a good alternative in reconfiguring hardware logics to optimize the system performance. This paper targets an essential issue in reconfigurable computing, i.e., the minimization of configuration contexts. We explore different constraints on the...
متن کاملAutonomic Management of Dynamically Partially Reconfigurable FPGA Architectures Using Discrete Control
This paper targets the autonomic management of dynamically partially reconfigurable hardware architectures based on FPGAs. Discrete Control modelled with Labelled Transition Systems is employed to model the considered behaviours of the computing system and derive a controller for the control objective enforcement. We consider system application described as task graphs and FPGA as a set of reco...
