Application Specific Customization And Scalability Of Soft Multiprocessors, Deepak C. Unnikrishnan
Application Specific Customization And Scalability Of Soft Multiprocessors, Deepak C. Unnikrishnan
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
Soft multiprocessor systems exploit the plentiful computational resources available in field programmable devices. By virtue of their adaptability and ability to support coarse grained parallelism, they serve as excellent platforms for rapid prototyping and design space exploration of embedded multiprocessor applications. As complex applications emerge, careful mapping, processor and interconnect customization are critical to the overall performance of the multiprocessor system. In this thesis, we have developed an automated scalable framework to efficiently map applications written in a high-level programmer-friendly language to customizable soft-cores. The framework allows the user to specify the application in a high-level language called Streamit. After …

Implementation Of Network Services Supporting Multi-Party Policies, Santosh C. Proddatoori
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
Next-generation network architectures support complex services in the data-path of routers. A key challenge is the integration of multiple policy constraints from senders, receivers, and network providers when using such services. We introduce a multi-party service specification framework based on our “service socket” API. We illustrate the operation of this approach in an IPTV scenario that uses a video transcoding service implemented on a Cisco ISR platform.
