Simulation and Prototyping Multiprocessor SoC with Hybrid Pipeline/Farm Architecture
Dvořák Václav, prof. Ing., DrSc.
Process- and thread-level parallelism is very often exploited inasynchronous processor pipelines for embedded applications, recently ona chip. The paper deals with simulation of pipelines with one or moreworkers in each pipeline stage. The number of workers can be adjustedto balance execution time of other stages so as to keep efficiencyhigh. Simulation-based prototyping of such pipeline processor farmsusing Transim tool can account for communication delays, multitasking,data-dependent variations in workload, CPUs with different speeds, etc.Simulation results for a given task divisible to a few subtasks ofarbitrary duration are presented as well as a particular example of apower of a matrix.
