Abstract0438948Paul, JoAnn M. CMUSoD: Enabling Design Strategies for Single Chip Heterogeneous MultiprocessorsWithin the next ten years, it will be possible to provide enough transistors on a single chip for on the order of a hundred 32-bit RISC processors. The design of these emergent, software-intensive single chip heterogeneous multiprocessor (SCHM) computer systems precludes the possibility of seat-of-the-pants analysis or specify-and-synthesize methodologies. No science of design has been developed for mixed hardware/software single chip multiprocessing systems. Strategic computer system organization - requires a creative proces that can not be automateds,and thus this designer creativity must be facilitated at the system level. The full vision of this research is to develop the science needed to enable future design systems to break away from the specify-and-synthesize mind set of current CAD tools to become a characterize-and-invent paradigm that still has ties into the current lower level integrated circuit design methodology flows. Another major theme behind our research is that computer system designers start from trend analyses, looking for future cross-over points between anticipated changes in the major features of applications sets and the physical capabilities of the major architectural features of the systems that carry them out. From these, design strategies are invented which can become basic organizing themes for entire classes of programmable systems.

作者：Paul，JoAnn M. CMUSoD：单芯片异构多处理器的实现设计策略在未来十年内，将有可能在单个芯片上提供足够的晶体管，用于大约100个32位RISC处理器。这些新兴的，软件密集型单芯片异构多处理器（SCHM）计算机系统的设计排除了座位的裤子分析或具体和综合方法的可能性。没有科学的设计已经发展为混合硬件/软件单芯片多处理系统。 战略计算机系统组织-需要一个创造性的过程，不能自动化，因此，这种设计师的创造力必须在系统级促进。 这项研究的全部愿景是发展所需的科学，使未来的设计系统摆脱目前的CAD工具的具体和综合的思维定势，成为一个特征和发明的范式，仍然有联系到目前较低层次的集成电路设计方法流。我们的研究背后的另一个主要主题是，计算机系统设计师从趋势分析开始，寻找未来的交叉点之间的预期变化的主要功能的应用程序集和执行它们的系统的主要架构功能的物理能力。从这些，设计策略的发明，可以成为基本的组织主题，为整个类的可编程系统。
