Abstract:
Heterogeneous MPSoCs are vastly used in current embedded systems but they are highly dependent on special compilers. Dynamic reconfigurable systems are an alternative to overcome such drawback due to their adaptability. However, when such architectures are considered, one must concern about which hardware blocks should be heterogeneous and their degree of heterogeneity. In this work, we propose a framework that automatically generates heterogeneous reconfigurable multiprocessors that exploit the ideal ILP of parallel applications to improve performance/watt. Our generated system achieves, on average, 32% of performance improvements with 33% of energy savings over its manual generated counterpart, with equivalent chip area.
