This paper presents a run-time resource manager for NoC-based many-core architectures that dynamically determines the most effective mapping of tasks on the processing nodes of the architecture to optimize system reliability while leveraging on performance and communication energy. An adaptive engine is exploited to pursue the given optimization goal taking into account various metrics. Experimental results for a set of benchmarks show that the adaptive engine (with MTTF optimization only) achieves 16% improvement in MTTF with respect to static pre-computed mapping at a reasonable communication energy overhead of 10%. Further, with MTTF and energy optimization engine turned-on, the adaptive engine is able to minimize communication energy consumption by 50% while exploiting the available MTTF slack.

Abstract

This paper presents a run-time resource manager for NoC-based many-core architectures that dynamically determines the most effective mapping of tasks on the processing nodes of the architecture to optimize system reliability while leveraging on performance and communication energy. An adaptive engine is exploited to pursue the given optimization goal taking into account various metrics. Experimental results for a set of benchmarks show that the adaptive engine (with MTTF optimization only) achieves 16% improvement in MTTF with respect to static pre-computed mapping at a reasonable communication energy overhead of 10%. Further, with MTTF and energy optimization engine turned-on, the adaptive engine is able to minimize communication energy consumption by 50% while exploiting the available MTTF slack.
