The advent of new microprocessor chip architectures (e.g., GPUs, multi-core/many-core chips architectures), next generation large scale integrated problems such as datacenter applications points to the need for a comprehensive rethinking of the approach to architecture design, programming, and software design. The research proposed in this document will be concerned with the characteristic behavior of future applications, highlighted by the performance, scalability, and how computer systems (execution and architecture models, and compilers/runtime software technologies) can be appropriately targeted. This work will result in the characterization of the features and requirements of such applications, in the development of suitable execution and architecture models that match their needs, and in the development of a compilation technology and its associated tools that will work in coordination with the proposed architecture models for the targeted application domains. The outcome of the proposed research will be an in-depth understanding of the needs of future applications, the demonstration of new architecture ideas, as well as the design of compilation methods and tools.

新的微处理器芯片架构（例如，gpu，多核/多核芯片架构）的出现，下一代大规模集成问题，如数据中心应用程序，指出需要对架构设计，编程和软件设计的方法进行全面的重新思考。本文档中提出的研究将关注未来应用程序的特征行为，突出表现为性能、可伸缩性以及如何适当地针对计算机系统（执行和体系结构模型以及编译器/运行时软件技术）。这项工作将导致对这些应用程序的特性和需求的描述，开发符合其需求的合适的执行和体系结构模型，以及开发与目标应用程序领域的拟议体系结构模型协调工作的编译技术及其相关工具。拟议研究的结果将是深入了解未来应用的需求，展示新的架构思想，以及设计编译方法和工具。
