Abstract:The use of massively parallel SIMD array architectures is proliferating in the area of domain specific coprocessors. Even so, they have undergone few systematic empirical studies. The underlying problems include the size of the architecture space, the lack of portability of the test programs, and the inherent complexity of simulating up to hundreds of thousands of processing elements. We address the computational cost problem with a novel approach to trace-based simulation. Code is run on an abstract virtual m… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
