Abstract(in English) The large data-transfer time among different cores and data-supply time to arithmetic unit is a big problem in heterogeneous multi-core processors. To reduce the data-supply time, an efficient method based on complex memory allocation was proposed. However, the data-transfer-modules cannot be used to accelerate the data transfer since the method does not use linear or stride data transfers. This paper presents a method by alignment in the data transfer and arithmetic processing respectively so that we can accelerate the data transfers exploiting data-transfer-units together with complex memory allocation. We use block matching to evaluate our technique. The proposed method reduces the data-transfer time by 42% compared to the method that use only complex memory allocation.
