System On Chip Devices for High Performance Computing Design Automation Conference 2015 System On Chip Workshop Noel Wheeler (nwheeler@lps.umd.edu) Advanced Computer Systems Research Program (ACS) Laboratory for Physical Sciences University of Maryland, Catonsville MD
Research Metrics Modeling, Simulation, and Emulation Computer Architecture and Engineering Mission Proxies
HPC Community Challenges? Just a few of the problems Conventional Technology, for example CMOS Architectural obstacles, such as Memory Walls And of course, Moore s Law Computation problems are evolving Data is becoming bigger and increasingly complex
HPC State of the Art Very capable processors Many/Multicore processors Clustered computer systems Specialized Processors/Logic ASIC/FPGA devices Exotic technologies
SOCs are interesting! SOC s are not a new idea Chipsets, Embedded systems Hybrid Memory Cube
SOCs of Today We are surrounded by SOC devices Consider the cell phone industry Recall our four metrics Consumers area always demanding more Industry that is motivated to deliver!
Moving Toward a HPC-SOC Most of the technology exists to do this already Understanding the recipe for an SOC to best serve the HPC community Modeling/Simulation tools SOC s S/N 1-1000 will be expensive SOC s S/N 1000+ are probably going to be a lot cheaper! Getting the design as right as possible is a good idea
Other challenges Algorithms Development tools Software models Compilers Operating systems PACT Workshop October18-21 2015
Some thoughts OpenHPC Open source technologies Research funding opportunities
