If you have a question about this talk, please contact George A Constantinides.

The PRiME Project is concerned with the management of heterogeneous many-core embedded systems’ power consumption and reliability. In an effort to unify these aspects, researchers from Imperial, Newcastle and Southampton have developed a software framework that standardises the data flows needed to manage the execution of arbitrary, concurrently executing applications on any computing platform featuring CPUs, GPUs and/or FPG As running Linux. In this talk, I’ll describe the concepts behind the PRiME Framework and its implementation, demonstrating its ease of use through simple examples. Results will be presented to show that the runtime management of various application-device combinations within the framework can lead to significant energy savings versus Linux’s standard approaches at the cost of small performance impacts. The framework will shortly be open-sourced. Early access can be arranged for anyone interested in experimenting with it in the meantime.
