1997 IEEE International Conference on Application-Specific Systems, Architectures and Processors (ASAP'97)
Determination of the Processor Functionality in the Design of Processor Arrays
Zurich, SWITZERLAND
July 14-July 16
ISBN: 0-8186-7958-1
In this paper the inclusion of hardware constraints into the design of massively parallel processor arrays is considered. We propose an algorithm which determines an optimal scheduling function as well as the selection of components which have to be implemented in one processor of a processor array. The arising optimization problem is formulated as an integer linear program which also takes the necessary chip area of a hardware implementation into consideration. Thereby we assume that an allocation function is given and that a partitioning of the processor array is required to match a limited chip area in silicon.
