The purpose of this research is to develop a comprehensive technology for evaluating the performance, cost, and power consumption of high-performance computer systems. We have performed the following researches in particular.(a) Comprehensive performance evaluation on the compiler and the architecture for high-end microprocessors.(b) Developing and benchmarking the compiler, targetted for application-specific embedded microprocessors, which is enable to optimize the object-code according to the instruction-cache configurations.(c) Developing a modeling methodology for estimating the performance, area cost, and power consumption for "system-on-silicon" class VLSI,and then establishing a platform for evaluating tradeoff among these factors.(d) For parallel computer systems such as workstation-clusters and MPPs (Massively Parallel Processors) ;・Development of performance estimation models,・Study of quantitative evaluation index on scalability, and・Correlation analysis of benchmark programs.
