Abstract:
The motion estimation is the most complex module in a video encoder requiring a high processing throughput and high memory bandwidth, mainly when the focus is high-definition videos. The throughput problem can be solved increasing the parallelism in the internal operations. The external memory bandwidth may be reduced using a memory hierarchy. This work presents a memory hierarchy model for a full-search motion estimation core. The proposed memory hierarchy model is based on a data reuse scheme considering the full search algorithm features. The proposed memory hierarchy expressively reduces the external memory bandwidth required for the motion estimation process, and it provides a very high data throughput for the ME core. This throughput is necessary to achieve real time when processing high-definition videos. When considering the worst bandwidth scenario, this memory hierarchy is able to reduce the external memory bandwidth in 578 times. A case study for the proposed hierarchy, using32×32search window and8×8block size, was implemented and prototyped on a Virtex 4 FPGA. The results show that it is possible to reach 38 frames per second when processing full HD frames (1920×1080pixels) using nearly 299 Mbytes per second of external memory bandwidth.

Abstract:
We propose a new data structure to compute the Delaunay triangulation of a set of points in the plane. It combines good worst case complexity, fast behavior on real data, small memory occupation and the possibility of fully dynamic insertions and deletions. The location structure is organized into several levels. The lowest level just consists of the triangulation, then each level contains the triangulation of a small sample of the level below. Point location is done by walking in a triangulation to determine the nearest neighbor of the query at that level, then the walk restarts from the neighbor at the level below. Using a small subset (3%) to sample a level allows a small memory occupation; the walk and the use of the nearest neighbor to change levels quickly locate the query.

Abstract:
MIPS processor is widely used in embedded system, whose memory hierarchy has such an important effect on the performance and cost that how to design memory hierarchy rapidly is a key problem. To deal with the MIPS memory hierarchy research, we design a MIPS simulator “QtMips”. It is a GUI, Qt-based simulator for MIPS assembly language, which not only collects and analyzes real-time simulation information, but also supports fast memory configuration setting such as hierarchy setting, allocation setting, etc.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper describes an application of artificial intelligence to support software reuse. We begin by discussing the characteristics of software engineering that establish dynamic reorganization as a requirement for a repository of software artifacts. We then present an experimental system that uses incremental concept formation as the basis for dynamic reorganization, and the conceptual hierarchy that was generated by the system for a set of 67 artifacts. The hierarchy is compared to a hierarchy produced manually by independent investigators, and the automatic hierarchy is evaluated in terms of retrieval efficiency and retrieval reliability. The paper ends with a discussion of three projects that share similar objectives with our work.

Abstract:
In the vulnerability analysis of System on Chips, memory hierarchy is considered among the most valuable element to protect against information theft. Many first-order side-channel attacks have been reported on all its components from the main memory to the CPU registers. In this context, memory hierarchy encryption is widely used to ensure data confidentiality. Yet, this solution suffers from both memory and area overhead along with performance losses (timing delays), which is especially critical for cache memories that already occupy a large part of the spatial footprint of a processor. In this paper, we propose a secure and lightweight scheme to ensure the data confidentiality through the whole memory hierarchy. This is done by masking the data in cache memories with a lightweight mask generator that provides masks at each clock cycle without having to store them. Only 8-bit Initialization Vectors are stored for each mask value to enable further recomputation of the masks. The overall security of the masking scheme is assessed through a mutual information estimation that helped evaluate the minimum number of attack traces needed to succeed a profiling side-channel attack to 592 K traces in the attacking phase, which provides an acceptable security level in an analysis where an example of Signal to Noise Ratio of 0.02 is taken. The lightweight aspect of the generator has been confirmed by a hardware implementation that led to resource utilization of 400 LUTs.

Abstract:
Nowadays the performance gap between processors and main memory makes an efficient usage of the memory hierarchy necessary for good program performance. Several techniques have been proposed for this purpose. Nevertheless most of them consider only regular access patterns, while many scientific and numerical applications give place to irregular patterns. A typical case is that of indirect accesses due to the use of compressed storage formats for sparse matrices. This paper describes an analytic approach to model both regular and irregular access patterns. The application modeled is an optimized sparse matrix-dense matrix product algorithm with several levels of blocking. Our model can be directly applied to any memory hierarchy consisting of K-way associative caches. Results are shown for several current microprocessor architectures.

Abstract:
Cell Superscalar's (CellSs) main goal is to provide a simple, flexible and easy programming approach for the Cell Broadband Engine (Cell/B.E.) that automatically exploits the inherent concurrency of the applications at a task level. The CellSs environment is based on a source-to-source compiler that translates annotated C or Fortran code and a runtime library tailored for the Cell/B.E. that takes care of the concurrent execution of the application. The first efforts for task scheduling in CellSs derived from very simple heuristics. This paper presents new scheduling techniques that have been developed for CellSs for the purpose of improving an application's performance. Additionally, the design of a new scheduling algorithm is detailed and the algorithm evaluated. The CellSs scheduler takes an extension of the memory hierarchy for Cell/B.E. into account, with a cache memory shared between the SPEs. All new scheduling practices have been evaluated showing better behavior of our system.

Abstract:
The verification of the cache memory hierarchy in modern SoC due to the large state space requires a huge number of complex tests. This becomes the main problem for functional verification. To cover the entire state space, a graph model of the cache memory hierarchy as well as the methods of generating the formation of the test sequences based on this model have been proposed. The graph model vertices are a set of states (tags, values, etc.) of each hierarchy level, and the edges are a set of transitions between states (instructions for reading, records). The graph model, describing all states of the cache-memory hierarchy states, has been developed. Each edge in the graph is a separate check sequence. In case of the non-deterministic situations, such as the choice of a channel (port) for multichannel cache memory, it will not be possible to resolve them at the level of the graph model, since the choice of the channel depends on many factors not considered within the model framework. It has been proposed to create a separate instance of a subgraph for each channel. The described approach has revealed, in verification of the multiport cache-memory hierarchy of the developed core with the new vector architecture VLIW DSP, a few architectural and functional errors. This approach can be used to test other processor cores and their blocks

Full text
Abstract:
Memory approximation techniques are commonly limited in scope, targeting individual levels of the memory hierarchy. Existing approximation techniques for a full memory hierarchy determine optimal configurations at design-time provided a goal and application. Such policies are rigid: they cannot adapt to unknown workloads and must be redesigned for different memory configurations and technologies. We propose SEAMS: the first self-optimizing runtime manager for coordinating configurable approximation knobs across all levels of the memory hierarchy. SEAMS continuously updates and optimizes its approximation management policy throughout runtime for diverse workloads. SEAMS optimizes the approximate memory configuration to minimize energy consumption without compromising the quality threshold specified by application developers. SEAMS can (1) learn a policy at runtime to manage variable application quality of service ( QoS ) constraints, (2) automatically optimize for a target metric within those constraints, and (3) coordinate runtime decisions for interdependent knobs and subsystems. We demonstrate SEAMS’ ability to efficiently provide functions (1)–(3) on a RISC-V Linux platform with approximate memory segments in the on-chip cache and main memory. We demonstrate SEAMS’ ability to save up to 37% energy in the memory subsystem without any design-time overhead. We show SEAMS’ ability to reduce QoS violations by 75% with < 5% additional energy.

Abstract:
Abstract We present a novel bounding volume hierarchy for GPU-accelerated direct volume rendering (DVR) as well as volumetric mesh slicing and inside-outside intersection testing. Our novel octree-based data structure is laid out linearly in memory using space filling Morton curves. As our new data structure results in tightly fitting bounding volumes, boundary markers can be associated with nodes in the hierarchy. These markers can be used to speed up all three use cases that we examine. In addition, our data structure is memory-efficient, reducing memory consumption by up to 75%. Tree depth and memory consumption can be controlled using a parameterized heuristic during construction. This allows for significantly shorter construction times compared to the state of the art. For GPU-accelerated DVR, we achieve performance gain of 8.4$$\times $$ × –13$$\times $$ × . For 3D printing, we present an efficient conservative slicing method that results in a 3$$\times $$ × –25$$\times $$ × speedup when using our data structure. Furthermore, we improve volumetric mesh intersection testing speed by 5$$\times $$ × –52$$\times $$ × .

Abstract:
This work explores a distributed problem solving (DPS) approach, namely the AM/AG (Amplification/Aggregation) model. The AM/AG model is a hierarchic social system metaphor for DPS based on Mintzberg’s model of organizations. At the core of the model are information flow mechanisms, namely, amplification and aggregation. Amplification is a process of decomposing a given task, called an agenda, into a set of subtasks with magnified degree of specificity and distributing them to multiple processing units downward in the hierarchy. Aggregation is a process of combining the results reported from multiple processing units into a unified view, called a resolution, and promoting the conclusion upward in the hierarchy. Amplification is discussed in detail. A set of generative rules is introduced. Each rule specifies a set of actions for transforming an input agenda into other forms with higher specificity. The proposed model can be used to account for the memory recall process which makes associations between vast amounts of related concepts, sorts out the combined results, and promotes the most plausible ones. An example of memory recall is used to illustrate the model.

Abstract:
When a stimulus is presented, its encoding is known to progress from low- to high-level features. How these features are decoded to produce perception is less clear, and most models assume that decoding follows the same low- to high-level hierarchy of encoding. There are also theories arguing for global precedence, reversed hierarchy, or bidirectional processing, but they are descriptive without quantitative comparison with human perception. Moreover, observers often inspect different parts of a scene sequentially to form overall perception, suggesting that perceptual decoding requires working memory, yet few models consider how working-memory properties may affect decoding hierarchy. We probed decoding hierarchy by comparing absolute judgments of single orientations and relative/ordinal judgments between two sequentially presented orientations. We found that lower-level, absolute judgments failed to account for higher-level, relative/ordinal judgments. However, when ordinal judgment was used to retrospectively decode memory representations of absolute orientations, striking aspects of absolute judgments, including the correlation and forward/backward aftereffects between two reported orientations in a trial, were explained. We propose that the brain prioritizes decoding of higher-level features because they are more behaviorally relevant, and more invariant and categorical, and thus easier to specify and maintain in noisy working memory, and that more reliable higher-level decoding constrains less reliable lower-level decoding.

Abstract:
We continue the program of Bedient et al.1 by investigating some of the ways of embedding IFS with 1-step memory into IFS with 2-step memory, and 1- and 2-step memory into IFS with 3-step memory. This reveals a hierarchy of attractors of m-step memory IFS as subsets of attractors of n-step memory IFS.
