Networks-on-chip: modeling, system-level abstraction, and application-specific architecture customization.Morgan, Ahmed Abdel Fattah Hassan 19 October 2011 (has links)
This dissertation proposes different methodologies, with their associated models,
to customize the architectural design of Application-Specific Networks-on-Chip
(ASNoC). Specifically, system-level evaluation models are presented and architecture
generation methodologies are built on them to allow the designer to generate the
most efficient architecture for a given NoC-based application. Our system-level
methodologies enable the designer to discover any flaws early during the design process
and to quickly investigate the effect of various design choices on the resultant NoC
cost and performance. In this dissertation, we have four main contributions.
In our first contribution, we propose power and reliability evaluation models.
The two models are proposed at the system-level to allow for a quick evaluation of
different design decisions. The power model captures the power consumption in NoC
routers and links, whereas the reliability one models the probability of the packets
being affected by on-chip noise sources.
In our second contribution, we propose a cost-efficient architecture generation
methodology for NoC based on network partitioning techniques. Our methodology
partially customizes the on-chip network architecture with respect to two cost metrics:
power and area. The partitioning technique is formulated using NoC terminology
based on the Fiduccia-Mattheyses graph partitioning algorithm. Our partitioning
scheme is compared to other partitioning techniques and is found to be the most
efficient one for NoC. We further analyze the effect of using network partitioning
on NoC power, area, and delay. From this analysis, the area reduction is proved to
be guaranteed using network partitioning. Moreover, power and delay efficiencies of
using network partitioning with NoC are formulated mathematically. Experimental
results show that the proposed methodology is an efficient way to reduce power and
area costs of NoC with respect to both standard and previous custom architecture
generation techniques.
In our third contribution, we propose a multi-objective Genetic Algorithm
(GA)-based optimization methodology for NoC full-custom architectures. For any
application, the designer could control the optimization process through different
optimization weight factors. Our methodology is evaluated by applying it to different
NoC benchmark applications, as case studies. Results show that the architectures
generated by our methodology outperform those generated by other techniques with
respect to power, area, delay, reliability, and the combination of the four metrics.
Finally, the running time of our methodology is an order of magnitude faster than
that of previous architecture optimization techniques.
In our fourth contribution, we propose a multi-objective GA-based methodology
to optimize the use of standard architectures, which were previously presented in
computer network, with NoC. Our methodology combines the best selection of NoC
standard architecture and the optimum mapping of application cores onto that
architecture. The methodology is further used to carry out an application-specific
mapping-oriented evaluation of different NoC standard architectures. Experimental
results show that the mapping achieved by our methodology outperforms those
generated by previous mapping techniques with respect to power, area, delay,
reliability, and the combination of the four metrics.
This research work aims at quickly validating various design decisions by
proposing system-level power and reliability evaluation models. Moreover, in this
dissertation, we present three application-specific methodologies to customize the
three main categories of architectures that are currently used in implementing on-chip
networks; namely, semi-custom, full-custom, and standard architectures, respectively.
Our methodologies consider different NoC metrics: power, area, delay, and reliability,
simultaneously. We believe that our proposed methodologies bridge an open gap in
NoC research by matching the on-chip network architecture to the characteristics and
the rapidly growing requirements of modern NoC applications. / Graduate

Application infrastructure evolution: An industrial case studyCsaky, Marcus 25 April 2013 (has links)
Modern computer infrastructure continues to advance at an accelerating pace. This advancement affects all aspects of computing systems such as hardware, device types, operating systems, and software. The constant change creates a problem for software vendors who must support not only the latest systems, but also previous versions. This infrastructure updating requirement limits software vendors when implementing new software features and in turn product innovation. There is a significant and increasing cost associated with adhering to application infrastructure requirement changes. To accommodate infrastructure change requirements, immediate and measurable action must be taken. First, the current industrial software development practices and tooling need to be analyzed. Current industrial release patterns and product update tooling must be understood and their shortcomings investigated. Next, key use cases ought to be identified and new methodologies and extensions to existing frameworks ought to be proposed to circumvent these difficulties. Finally, systems must be architected and developed to test the solution hypotheses and then deployed in commercial applications. This thesis focuses on these critical steps in the call to action to change software infrastructure management. In this thesis, we analyze an industrial problem including a real case study. We illustrate the currently available approaches and then describe how they are not sufficient in solving the problem. Our approach is based on an extension of a previously developed framework (i.e., the SmartContext commerce framework). In particular, we design an architecture and implementation for our industrial problem domain. / Graduate / 0984
