Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The authors have proposed a new ASSP (Application-Specific Standard Product) architecture, called PPRAM(Parallel Processing Random Access Memory, Practical Parallel Random Access Machine). PPRAMis (i) a monolithic-memory & multiprocessor chip architecture, which integrates multiprocessor and a large size of DRAM on a chip, (ii) a distributed-memory on-chip multiprocessor architecture, which exploits the inherently ultra-high on-chip-memory bandwidth, (iii) a shared-global-register on-chip multiprocessor architecture, which exploits the inherently ultra-low intra-chip communication latency, and (iv) a network-of-chips architecture, which allows scalable computer systems to be made of PPRA Mchips. This paper describes the background of the PPRAM project, the definition of PPRAM, and a hardware/software co-design with PPRAM.
