During the last years, especially due to the computing systems complexity growth, the need for tools which perform automatic design space exploration becomes more and more stringent. This paper presents a new initiated project having as the main aim developing a software tool, called FADSE (Framework for Automatic Design Space Exploration), that comes to meet this need. It is intended to provide out-of-the-box algorithms capable of solving single and multiobjective optimization problems. It focuses on automatic design space exploration for multicore and manycore systems. This tool is intended to be flexible, to provide easy development and portability.

This paper presents a preliminary PhD research towards developing a framework to evaluate and optimize application mapping algorithms for Network-on-Chip architectures. Several such algorithms have been proposed for mapping the threads of a parallel application on a NoC architecture. However, the performance of those algorithms is evaluated only on some specific NoC designs. A unified approach for evaluating such algorithms allows a better comparison of their performance and can potentially lead to some optimizations. The proposed framework is intended to be flexible so that the algorithms can be tested on different NoC designs. To this end, a scalable and flexible Network-on-Chip simulator is proposed. Some preliminary results obtained with this simulator are presented, too. They show the flexibility of this simulator and that it is feasible for addressing the application mapping problem in a unified manner.

Parametric search is a useful tool in geometric optimization. Invented by Nimrod Megiddo in 1983, it has been widely used in computational geometry. Unfortunately, this technique has rarely been used in the combinatorial optimization community in China. In this paper, we introduce parametric search via three new geometric optimization applications.

This special session aims to introduce to the hardware/software codesign community challenges and opportunities in designing high performance computing (HPC) systems. Though embedded system design and HPC system design have traditionally been considered as two separate areas of research, they in fact share quite some common features, especially as CMOS devices continue along their scaling trends and the HPC community hits hard power and energy limits. Understanding the similarities and differences between the design practices adopted in the two areas will help bridge the two communities and lead to design tool developments benefiting both communities.

As computing goes to system-on-chip era, on-chip network becomes an essential infrastructure for on-chip modules (cores) communication. 2D-Mesh is the most common on-chip network topology providing high throughput point-to-point communication due to its simplicity and regularity. A well-designed 2D-Mesh wormhole router should be deadlock free while supporting multicast and adaptive routing. Unfortunately, there exists no router design providing all these characteristics concurrently. In this paper, we propose an on-chip address-data decoupled FIFO wormhole router which supports adaptive routing, native multicast and deadlock free network guarantee. For a network using a 30-flit packet, our wormhole router increases the area efficiency by 49.5% compared with a virtual cut-through router. Copyright 2009 ACM.
