Power-awarness in coarse-grained reconfigurable designs: A dataflow based strategy
No full textApplications and hardware complexity management in modern systems tend to collide with efficient resource and power balance. Therefore, dedicated and power-aware design frameworks are necessary to implement efficient multi-functional runtime reconfigurable signal processing platforms. In this work, we adopt dataflow specifications as a starting point to challenge power minimization
DSE and profiling of multi-context coarse-grained reconfigurable systems
No full textThe implementation of multi-context systems over coarse-grained reconfigurable platforms could bring several benefits in terms of efficient resource usage and power management. Nevertheless on-the-fly reconfiguration and mapping are not so straightforward and the optimal configuration of the substrate could be extremely time consuming. In this paper we present an early stage design space exploration methodology intended for dataflow-based design flows where multiple input specifications have to be taken into account. The proposed approach, coupled to the Multi-Dataflow Composer tool, has been exploited to assemble the central reconfigurable computing core of an accelerator for video/image processing

Coarse-grained reconfiguration: dataflow-based power management
No full textPower reduction in modern embedded systems design is a challenging issue exacerbated by the complexity and heterogeneity of their architecture. In the field of Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC), to challenge these issues and cut-down time to market, dataflow-based techniques have been adopted. In particular, to master management and composability of dynamically reconfigurable systems, the authors have developed the multi-dataflow composer. Nevertheless, despite the RVC offers several different tools, in its reference design framework power management is still an open issue. To make some steps forward towards filling this gap, in this study, they address power management for coarse-grained reconfigurable systems combining structural and dynamic strategies, both to be applied at the dataflow level. © The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2015
Challenging CPS Trade-off Adaptivity with Coarse-Grained Reconfiguration
No full textCyber Physical Systems are highly adaptive systems, prone to change behaviour due to external/internal conditions. From the computation point of view, reconfigurable systems may address adaptation. In this paper, by a set of examples we show how coarse-grained reconfiguration may successfully allow achieving dynamic trade-off management, while considering different technology targets and different design flows
From aspirational thinking to strategic planning – breaking down the barriers of inequality for children and young people
No full textAddressing the impacts of socioeconomic inequality on children and young people has been a key priority for successive UK governments across recent decades, particularly in response to wider concerns about development, wellbeing, and prospects for upward social mobility. The current government’s mission, ‘Break Down Barriers to Opportunity’, reaffirms this commitment and outlines key focus areas and strategies to mitigate these impacts. In this article, Dr Chae-Young Kim and Professor Carlo Raffo outline their research at The University of Manchester examining how Year 11 students view, and are impacted by, socioeconomic inequality

Automated power gating methodology for dataflow-based reconfigurable systems
No full textModern embedded systems designers are required to implement efficient multi-functional applications, over portable platforms under strong energy and resources constraints. Automatic tools may help them in challenging such a complex scenario: to develop complex reconfigurable systems while reducing time-to-market. At the same time, automated methodologies can aid them to manage power consumption. Dataflow models of computation, thanks to their modularity, turned out to be extremely useful to these purposes. In this paper, we will demonstrate as they can be used to automatically achieve power management since the earliest stage of the design flow. In particular, we are focussing on the automation of power gating. The methodology has been evaluated on an image processing use case targeting an ASIC 90 nm CMOS technology
