Title: Efficient wiring of reconfigurable parallel processors

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10143368

The advent of chips which include one or more CPUS, some local memory, and rudimentary communications and routing hardware has opened a new area in computer architecture design. What is the best way to connect these chips to solve particular problems? This paper defines the efficiency of a wiring scheme for a set of communication patterns. It then gives upper and lower bounds on the best efficiency achievable. It also presents simple wiring schemes for some stencil patterns used in mesh-based discrete simulations.
