Research Abstract |
In this research, we aimed at drastic improvements in a processor-core architecture as a processor element oriented to a massively parallel computer, on the basis of the state-of-the-art IC technology. First of all, we have extracted indispensable and essential ones from the respective functions of processing, memory and communication. Next, we have merged them into an all-in-one processor-core function, and designed a concise processor-core architecture for several massively parallel computers. This processor-core can provide massively parallel computer architects with a homogeneous and simple processor element architecture as a new tradeoff between hardware and software.
