Abstract

Many heuristics have been created to solve the mapping problem. A set of mapping heuristics has been integrated into a program development system, such that mapping becomes an automatic step of program generation. The system serves as a basis for development, analysis, and comparison of mapping heuristics as well as as program development tool with selectable mapping heuristics for program configuration.

The system is implemented on a flexible transputer based parallel computer, which is able to emulate a large variety of problems for mapping heuristics. Runtime monitoring of configured programs allows a detailed evaluation of mapping heuristics.
