PaPP Project Tutorial
at
The 9th HiPEAC Conference - January 20-22, Vienna, Austria
Tutorial: Portable and Predictable Performance on Heterogeneous Embedded Manycores
- The PaPP Project Approach and Experience.
Abstract
The ARTEMIS PaPP project aims to provide software development methods and tools for embedded software on multi-core platforms that enable application performance predictability and portability. Current development practices cannot manage performance requirements in the same way that they manage functional requirements, yet performance predictability and portability becomes ever more important for the industry as it tries to cope with increasing complexity of embedded software and hardware diversity, and subsequent hardware generations replace each other ever more frequently. Also, embedded systems have to reach a given performance level while using a minimum amount of resources, while general computing applications - and development tools - aim to maximize performance given fixed hardware resources. Using general-purpose development tools for many-core embedded systems usually results in resource over-provisioning.

The one day tutorial is presenting software development methods and tools for embedded software on multi-core platforms that enable application performance predictability and portability. In this tutorial, we are going to present and demonstrate some of the developed tools and preliminary results achieved during the first project year. We will discuss our experiences from working with the tools on industrial applications.
The presentations will focus the following sessions:
Session1: Formulating the correct approach: which are the objectives vs the challenges? Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS).
Session 2: Video & Tool Demonstrators, HI-Iberia Ingenieria y Proyectos (HIB) and Thales Alenia Space Spain (TAS-E), Spain.
Session3: Task Centric Programming, Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS).
Session4: Modelling Issues, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland (VTT) and Saint Petersburg State University of Aerosp. Instrument. (SUAI), Russian Federation.
Session5: Adaptivity Framework, Technical University of Denmark (DTU).
Session6: Architectural-Aware Scheduling, Kungliga Tekniska Hogskolan, Sweden (KTH).
Duration
Half day tutorial. Talks with demos.
