A Multicore Reconfigurable Processor Platform for Energy and Throughput Aware Applications(Link)

July 2013

The saturation of design complexity and clock frequencies for single core processors have resulted in the emergence of multicore architectures as an alternative design paradigm. In the recent trends, multicore/multithreaded computing systems are not only a de facto standard for high-end applications but are gaining popularity in the field of embedded computing. The advanced level research on multicore architectures requires the development of a high-end test bed for the exploration of hardware and software. Therefore, we propose an FPGA based multicore reconfigurable architecture that will support MS and PhD level research and development in the areas of multicore-processing including core design, memory management, thread scheduling, application support, inter-processor communication, debugging, power management, run-time reconfiguration, real-time applications and many more.

The scope of this research project will include the development of an FPGA based reconfigurable multicore architecture that will support runtime reconfiguration of cache size and associativity, number of cores and operating frequency. Using the performance counters we will be able to have a feedback of energy consumption, application throughput and cache miss rate. The project will also include the development of Fuzzy logic, Neural Nets, Game Programming or similar Artificial Intelligence (AI) based algorithm to strike a balance between throughput and energy consumption of work-load
