| Research Abstract |
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.
