CARMA Energy-Efficient HPC on ARM CARMA Energy-Efficient HPC on ARM 4th July 2012 – Munich, Germany At the beginning… What it used to be... At the beginning two different and independent markets divided by their features, price, performances and power consumption Two completely SEPARATED Worlds! ARM & x86 Markets Security Systems A/V JukeboxA/V Slot Slot machines Broad set of Embedded Applications Telematics / ETC Systems SECO® Proprietary & Confidential ARM & x86 Convergence Size of Size Market The Next Billion Computers 1,000 W 100 W 10 W 1 W Power Consumption SECO® Proprietary & Confidential ARM & x86 Convergence X86 15% 85% RISC ARM & x86 Convergence 6 5 4 ARM Power PC 3 x86 SH MIPS 2 1 0 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Semicast Research ARM & x86 Convergence Units in Billions 7 6 5 Annual Shipments 4 AR M 3 2 1 0 Years 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 The Best Standard For An Easy Migration It’s needed to BE STANDARD! The Best Standard For An Easy Migration? The Main Questions… The main questions Which is the Right Platform to suggest? How to let our Customer to reach the Market quickly? How to develop a Cost Effective and an Innovative Solution? What about Product Long Life Term? Why Qseven? Historical Background The Qseven Consortium • was born in the 2008 • Open to all Companies in embedded market • First standard accepted by the SGET The points of the success • Free Industrial COM Standard • Legacy Free • Cost effective MXM connector • Low power (12W max TDP) and low cost solution • Flexible Graphics – new graphic standards are supported • Embedded API • Fast Serial Interfaces • Solid Mechanical Mounting (7 x 7 cm – 2.76” x 2.76” ) • Passive cooling • Cross Platform ARM-x86 Why Qseven? The Qseven Members The Best Standard For An Easy Migration ARM - Key Features Industrial market: ARM & x86, two completely separated world... • The low-power consumption platform per excellence • Low-end, custom solutions • “Microcontroller-style” approach for a friendly solution across most small/medium system integrators • ARM processors offer many features through pin multiplexing • Strong platform customization solutions available on the market => no second sources available • Worse Time-To-Market because of software development The Best Standard For An Easy Migration ARM & x86 Convergence is the future The TRADE-OFF: increasing complexity of ARM solutions! Traditional ARM developers are now faced to new technological challenges. As a consequence, overall development costs are increasing, projects may become unfeasible and Time-to-Market goals cannot be achieved. Work and added value are still mainly focused on the software. The Best Standard For An Easy Migration The wide range of possibilities offered by ARM processors can lead to negative effects: very strong customization is necessary, obsolescence or natural change of board requirements can involve a long re-engineering time. Two different needs: • Manufacturers need to produce standard products to be used by as many customers as possible, reducing engineering and manufacturing costs –> Enabling Economies of Scale • Customers need to reduce resources invested in development, minimizing overall development and material expenses –> Shortest TTM! Standards help ensuring product availability over years, second sources and cost reduction. The Best Standard For An Easy Migration ARM & x86 Convergence is the future We can observe: Latest ARM processors often include standard x86 interfaces: • PCI-Express • DVI/HDMI video interface • S-ATA • MIPI DSI Latest ARM processors are multicore, enabling parallel Convergence computing and reducing overall power consumption while improving computational performances Convergence of performances: distributed VS centralized computation often allows ARM SOC to equal/overtake x86 performances (application-oriented approach VS full general purpose). Convergence of OS and SW: traditional x86 operating systems now support ARM architectures (Linux / Windows CE / Windows Compact Embedded 7 / Windows 8) The Best Standard For An Easy Migration Which Architecture? Thanks to the convergence of latest ARM processors and standard x86 interfaces You can easily migrate from x86 to ARM with the Qseven philosophy!
