A Hybrid Reconfigurable Cluster-on-Chip Architecture With Message Passing Interface For Image Proces

Speaker: Syed Irfanullah Azeezullah, ITEE

When: 2007-08-21 13:00:00

Venue: 78-622

Host: Dr John Williams

Abstract:

We describe a hybrid reconfigurable cluster-on-chip architecture
with a cross-platform Message Passing Interface (MPI), a
cross-platform parallel image processing library and a sample
application. In this paper we describe the system, network
architecture, MPI library and the parallel image processing library
implementations. We demonstrate the performance, scalability and
suitability of MPI as a software interface to enable cross-platform
application parallelism on reconfigurable hybrid cluster-on-chip
systems and desktop cluster systems. The presented results are
promising, showing the suitability, scalability and performance of
parallelisation of image processing algorithms with a cross-platform
MPI communication backend. Our long-term research goal is to support
native hardware nodes capable of functioning as fully-fledged MPI
nodes.
