Work Package 3

Objectives:


Within this work package the scalable multi-processor architecture dedicated to real-time high-performance and low-power applications will be defined and various system arrangements regarding memory hierarchies and communication infrastructure will be investigated. This includes
  • Requirements definition of scalable multi-core platform
  • Specification and formal description of multi-core platform
  • Virtual prototyping of multi-core platform
  • Methodology for architecture exploration, analysis and optimisation
The challenges in the design of MP systems are in understanding:
  • How system architecture affects associated software model
  • How the various combinations and styles of memory and communication effect the real-time computation capability and associated power consumption
  • How the requirements for scalable multi-core OS as defined in WP2 can be managed within real-time constraints and characterizations of a hardware platform
