To If the large dataset cannot fit entirely in memory, it has to address the tremendous pressure on the main memory system, discrete memory modules can be networked together to form a be spilled to disk, thus causing sub-optimal performance due memory pool, enabled by recent trends towards richer memory to disk I/O contention.

One AMD Place Sunnyvale, CA 94088 Page 1 Introduction to AGP-8X May 10, 2002 W H I T E P A P E R Background Tremendous efforts have been made to improve computing system performance through increases in CPU processing power; however, I/O bottlenecks throughout the computing platform can limit the system performance. To eliminate system bottlenecks, AMD has been working with industry leaders to implement innovative technologies including AGP, DDR SDRAM, USB2.0, and HyperTransport™ technology. This white paper will provide an overview of the latest graphics subsystem innovation: AGP-8X. Introduction The Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) was developed as a high-performance graphics interface. It alleviates the PCI graphics bottleneck by providing high bandwidth throughput and direct access to system memory. The new AGP3.0 specification adds an 8X mode definition, which doubles the maximum data transfer rate from the previous high reached with AGP-4X by doubling the amount of data transferred per AGP bus cycle. Figure 1 shows the graphic interface bandwidth performance evolution from PCI to AGP-8X. In this figure, AGP3.0 refers to the specific AGP interface specification. AGP-1X, AGP-2X, AGP-4X and AGP-8X represent the data transfer speed mode.

  • 2.2 Memory Hierarchies for Reconfigurable
    Computer Engineering 2010 Mekelweg 4, 2628 CD Delft The Netherlands http://ce.et.tudelft.nl/ MSc THESIS General Purpose Computing with Reconfigurable Acceleration Anthony Arthur Courtenay Brandon Abstract In this thesis we describe a new generic approach for accelerating software functions using a reconfigurable device connected through a high-speed link to a general purpose system. In order for our solu- tion to be generic, as opposed to related ISA extension approaches, we insert system calls into the original program to control the re- configurable accelerator using a compiler plug-in. We define specific mechanisms for the communication between the reconfigurable de- vice, the host general purpose processor and the main memory. The reconfigurable device is controlled by the host through system calls provided by the device driver, and initiates communication by raising interrupts; it further has direct accesses to the main memory (DMA) operating in the virtual address space. To do so, the reconfigurable device supports address translation, while the driver serves the de- vice interrupts, ensures that shared data in the host-cache remain coherent, and handles memory protection and paging. The system is implemented using a machine which provides a HyperTransport CE-MS-2010-28 bus connecting a Xilinx Virtex4-100 FPGA to the host. We evaluate alternative design choices of our proposal using an AES application and accelerating its most computationally intensive function. Our experimental results show that our solution is up to 5 faster than × software
