Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research, we worked on developing a high-speed system that emulates the behavior of a large-scale many-core processor with thousands of cores while maintaining cycle-level accuracy using FPGA. This system accelerates research and development of many-core architecture and research and development of system software and application programs for many-core processors. Focusing on the RISC-V architecture, attracting attention because of its open architecture, we implemented an efficient scalar processor with a typical five-stage pipelining and its development environment. We released their source code as open source.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

大規模メニーコアプロセッサの超高速エミュレーションのために不可欠となるトレース駆動のネットワークオンチップのシミュレーションの方式として、FPGAを活用してパケット間の依存関係を考慮しながら正しくシミュレーションをおこなう高速で洗練された方式を開発した。その成果は高く評価されており、FPGA関連のトップカンファレンスの1つであるFPGA2020に採録されて発表している。また、ハードウェア記述言語を用いて、汎用のオペレーティングシステムであるLinuxが動作する高機能なRISC-Vシステムオンチップを実装しオープンソースとして公開した。関連するウェブサイトを公開し、多くアクセスされている。
