Research on Fault-Tolerant Control System for Space Modular Manipulator System
2006
Chinese Journal of Aeronautics
Design technologies for traditional industrial manipulator systems cannot be directly used to the space ones due to the special space environment and compactness. ...
Considering the extremely tight constraints on mass, power consumption, volume, cost and "design-to-orbit" schedules, the fault-tolerant control system is developed mainly based on commercial-off-the-shaft ...

Cost effectiveness of an adaptable computing cluster
2001
Proceedings of the 2001 ACM/IEEE conference on Supercomputing (CDROM) - Supercomputing '01
With a focus on commodity PC systems, Beowulf clusters traditionally lack the cutting edge network architectures, memory subsystems, and processor technologies found in their more expensive supercomputer ...
This paper presents the cost implications of an architectural extension that adds reconfigurable computing to the network interface of Beowulf clusters. ...
Hindering the technology further is its reliance on the PCI bus to transfer data to and from host memory. ...

High-performance I/O and Networking Software in Sequoia 2000
1995
Digital technical journal of Digital Equipment Corporation
In addition, Sequoia distributed applications require the efficient movement of very large objects, from tens to hundreds of megabytes in size. ...
These techniques reduce or eliminate costly memory accesses, avoid unnecessary processing, and bypass system overheads to improve throughput and reduce latency. ...
We thank Fred Templin for the technical expertise he provided us on Digital networking equipment. We thank Mike Stonebraker and Jeff Dozier for their leadership of the Sequoia 2000 project. ...

Operand length distribution for packed (decimal) data
knowledge is required about the data types and their length distribution. Four data groups have been defined (see Table 4). ...
Large-Scale Fast Fourier Transform
[chapter]
2011
GPU Computing Gems Emerald Edition
Bandwidth-intensive tasks such as large-scale fast Fourier transfers (FFTs) without data locality are hard to accelerate on GPU clusters because the bottleneck often lies with the PCI bus or the communication ...
The technique of manipulating array dimensions during data transfer is the main technical contribution. ...
Memory Hierarchy of GPU Clusters 631 Several factors have contributed to the surprising performance of our FFT on PKU McClus: first, data processing by GPUs via PCI bus is faster than sustained large memory ...

A multi-microprocessor computer system architecture
1975
Proceedings of the fifth symposium on Operating systems principles - SOSP '75
A computer system design incorporating these ideas is proposed, along with its impact on memory management and process control aspects of the system's operating system. ...
The development of microprocessors has suggested the design of distributed processing and multiprocessing computer architectures. ...
If the high order bits matched the address of the memory module, the switch would connect the input bus with memory module bus and the data transfer could proceed. ...

Direct GPU/FPGA Communication via PCI Express
2012
2012 41st International Conference on Parallel Processing Workshops
Parallel processing has hit mainstream computing in the form of CPUs, GPUs and FPGAs. ...
This is due in part to the cumbersome nature of communication between the two. ...
This requires the FPGA to map its memory (on chip or otherwise) onto the PCIe bus so that the GPU may read or write it directly as needed. ...
