Programming Heterogeneous MPSoCs

Abstract

The previous chapter motivated and gave an intuitive description of the problem of mapping multiple applications onto heterogeneous MPSoCs. Three sub-problems were identified, corresponding to three different application types and tool flows: sequential, parallel and SDR. Each of these problems is broad enough to allow for different formulations, interpretations and solutions.

Notes

  1. 1.

    This method is not used in this book, but is listed for the sake of completeness.

  2. 2.

    In this book, it is assumed that the size of data types does not depend on the processor type the code is compiled to run on. In reality, the actual size depends on the individual target compilers.

  3. 3.

    Being more closely related to the so-called Computation Graphs  [139].
