AbstractOn-chip computing platforms are evolving from single-core bus-based systems to many-core network-based systems, which are referred to as On-chip Large-scale Parallel Computing Architectures (OLPCs) in the paper. Homogenous OLPCs feature strong regularity and scalability due to its identical cores and routers. Data-parallel applications have their parallel data subsets that are handled individually by the same program running in different cores. Therefore, data-parallel applications are able to obtain good speedup in homogenous OLPCs. The paper addresses modeling the speedup performance of homogeneous OLPCs for data-parallel applications. When establishing the speedup performance model, the network communication latency and the ways of storing data of data-parallel applications are modeled and analyzed in detail. Two abstract concepts (equivalent serial packet and equivalent serial communication) are proposed to construct the network communication latency model. The uniformand hotspot traffic models are adopted to reflect the ways of storing data. Some useful suggestions are presented during the performance model's analysis. Finally, three data-parallel applications are performed on our cycle-accurate homogenous OLPC experimental platform to validate the analytic results and demonstrate that our study provides a feasible way to estimate and evaluate the performance of data-parallel applications onto homogenous OLPCs. |
