在本文中,我们提出了使用传输触发架构(TTAs)作为模板的应用程序特定的处理器的设计。TTA可以与VLIW(超长指令字处理器)相比较;两者都利用了编译时可用的指令级并行性。然而,TTA的编程方式不同。TTA联合收割机结合了一组有趣的特性;除了完全可编程之外,它们还具有良好的缩放特性,它们可以轻松地集成任意功能,并且它们的组织结构良好,允许轻松自动设计。本文对这些特征进行了解释。基于此模板的一组设计工具已经开发出来,它们包括一个并行化的C/C++编译器,利用可用的处理器和应用程序的并发性,一个处理器生成器,模拟器,剖析器,和一个工具的架构探索,这些工具都集成在一个图形用户界面。在本文中,我们简要介绍了这些工具,并演示了它们如何可以应用到一个特定的应用程序。此示例应用程序取自图像处理领域。它将显示如何帮助工具探索许多解决方案,包括那些纳入应用程序的特定功能。
In this paper we propose the usage of Transport Triggered Architectures (TTAs) as a template for the design of application specific processors. TTAs can be compared to VLIWs (Very Long Instruction Word processors); both exploit the instruction level parallelism available at compile-time. However, TTAs are programmed differently. TTAs combine a set of interesting features; apart from being fully programmable, they have favorable scaling characteristics, they easily incorporate arbitrary functionality, and their organization is well structured, allowing easy and automatic design. The paper explains these features. Based on this template a set of design tools has been developed; they include a parallelizing C/C++ compiler which exploits the available processor and application concurrency, aprocessor generator, simulators, profilers, and a tool for architecture exploration; these tools are integrated within a graphical user interface. In the paper we briefly describe these tools and demonstrate how they can be applied to a particular application. This example application is taken from the image processing area. It will be shown how the tools assist in exploring many solutions, including those which incorporate application specific functionality.
