Performance Evaluation of A Multiprocessor Support for Concurrent Execution of Critical Sections

Chang, Heng-Hao 01 October 2001 (has links)
In this research, in order to improve the concurrency of critical sections on distributed shared memory multiprocessors, we designed various concurrency control support for critical sections and simulate its system performance simulation. The system features consist of:

A demand driven multiprocessor

Bakti, Zulkifli Abdul Kadir January 1985 (has links)
It is thought that fast low cost computers can be built by employing large numbers of cheap microprocessors working together in a system. However increasing the number of microprocessors in a parallel computer system may not produce a linear increase in performance for general purpose programming. The problems seem to lie in the communication between processors and the method of exploiting parallelism. A multiprocessor system was constructed using six MC68000 microprocessors. The problems of communication and exploiting parallelism were tackled in the design of the multiprocessor system. The component processors in a multiprocessor system communicate with each other through a communication channel. It is essential that the communication hardware has a high bandwidth. A fast communication hardware was implemented based on a two port shared memory. One method of extracting parallelism in a computing problem is by using divide and conquer. A software system was developed that enables the multiprocessor to exploit parallelism derived by the divide and conquer method. A software kernel is employed to manage the scheduling of parallel tasks to processors and the communication between processors. The mode of computation is based on the demand driven model.

Os chamados Multiprocessor System-on-Chip (MPSoc) incluem multiplos processadores heterogeneos, estruturas complexas de interconexão e componentes de propriedade intelectual fornecidos por terceiros. Esta tecnologia permitiu o surgimento de dispositivos portateis como telefones celulares, PDAs, dispositivos multimídia que combinam a portabilidade com a capacidade de antigos computadores desktop. Contudo, a especificação e validação destes sistemas se tornou uma tarefa muito difícil. Existe um gap entre a especificação do sistema em alto nível e a implementação em uma plataforma multirprocessador. Este gap entre a especificação e a implementação não é tratado de forma adequada pelas metodologias e ferramentas existentes. Tendo como consequencia atrasos no ciclo de desenvolvimento e erros que podem comprometer o projeto. Nesta tese é atacado o problema de implementação da comunicação modelada a nível de sistema em plataformas multiprocessadores. As contribuições deste trabalho são: (1) uma nova abordagem para a modelagem de plataformas multiprocessador; (2) uma metodologia para o mapeamento de comunicação na plataforma; (3) suporte de análise para avaliação da implementação da comunicação. As metodologias e ferramentas propostas foram validadas utilizando-se dois estudos de caso. O primeiro uma aplicação com múltiplas comunicações e o segundo uma aplicação multimídia

ACCELERATING REAL-TIME SPACE DATA PACKET PROCESSING

Dowling, Jason, Welling, John, Aerosys, Loral, Nanzetta, Kathy, Bennett, Toby, Shi, Jeff 11 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 30-November 02, 1995 / Riviera Hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada / NASA’s use of high bandwidth packetized Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) telemetry in future missions presents a great challenge to ground data system developers. These missions, including the Earth Observing System (EOS), call for high data rate interfaces and small packet sizes. Because each packet requires a similar amount of protocol processing, high data rates and small packet sizes dramatically increase the real-time workload on ground packet processing systems. NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center has been developing packet processing subsystems for more than twelve years. Implementations of these subsystems have ranged from mini-computers to single-card VLSI multiprocessor subsystems. The latter subsystem, known as the VLSI Packet Processor, was first deployed in 1991 for use in support of the Solar Anomalous & Magnetospheric Particle Explorer (SAMPEX) mission. An upgraded version of this VMEBus card, first deployed for Space Station flight hardware verification, has demonstrated sustained throughput of up to 50 Megabits per second and 15,000 packets per second. Future space missions including EOS will require significantly higher data and packet rate performance. A new approach to packet processing is under development that will not only increase performance levels by at least a factor of six but also reduce subsystem replication costs by a factor of five. This paper will discuss the development of a next generation packet processing subsystem and the architectural changes necessary to achieve a thirty-fold improvement in the performance/price of real-time packet processing.
