LTRF: Enabling High-Capacity Register Files for GPUs via Hardware/Software Cooperative Register Prefetching

Babak Falsafi, Hamid Sarbazi-Azad, Mario Paulo Drumond Lages De Oliveira, Seyed Borna Ehsani

Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) employ large register files to accommodate all active threads and accelerate context switching. Unfortunately, register files are a scalability bottleneck for future GPUs due to long access latency, high power consumption, ...

Designing Best Effort Networks-on-Chip to Meet Hard Latency Constraints

Giovanni De Micheli, Luca Benini, Srinivasan Murali, Ciprian Seiculescu, Dara Rahmati, Hamid Sarbazi-Azad

Many classes of applications require Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees from the system interconnect. In Networks-on-Chip (NoC) QoS guarantees usually translate into bandwidth and latency constraints for the traffic flows and require hardware support in t ...

A Method for Calculating Hard QoS Guarantees for Networks-on-Chip

Giovanni De Micheli, Federico Angiolini, Luca Benini, Srinivasan Murali, Dara Rahmati, Hamid Sarbazi-Azad

Many Networks-on-Chip (NoC) applications exhibit one or more critical traffic flows that require hard Quality of Service (QoS). Guaranteeing bandwidth and latency for such real time flows is crucial. In this paper, we present novel methods to efficiently c ...
