Abstract:A heterogeneous system with soft CPU tailored to the individual threads of the application, while still software based, offers the potential for improved performance and resource utilization over a homogeneous system. In this paper we present a method to automatically create a heterogeneous multi-core system from a multithreaded software application. The resulting system consists of processing elements based on customized MIPS soft CPUs coupled with their respective programs. Using instruction set architecture… Show more
