Preface This manual covers the theory of operation of the Solbourne Series4 and SeriesS systems. Theory of operations deals with the function of the major hardware components of the Series4 and Series5 systems. The difference between Series4 and Series5 is the design and performance of the CPU Boards in each system; otherwise the systems are identical in hardware functions. The theory of operation of each of these CPU Boards is detailed in this document. The Series4 and 5 theory of operations applies to two implementations of each series-the Series4 and Series5/500 (or desktop) model and the Series4 or Series5/600 (or deskside) model. The. major difference between the desktop and deskside model is the inclusion of the VMEbus backplane in the deskside, an interface not provided in the desktop model. The material dealing with the VMEbus interface in the System Board section applies only to Series4 and Series5/600 systems. The System Board of the Series4 and Series5/500 is identical to that used in the Series4 and Series5/600, but the VMEbus connections are not used. Theory of operation covers the functional blocks on each board, how they interface to the larger system and what their inputs and outputs are. This manual is divided into nine sections, as follows: Section 1 - System Overview This section introduces each of the components that is described in this manual. Section 2 - Kbus Operation This section describes the Kbus, which is the main communication link among the components detailed in this manual. It provides the name and description of each bus signal. Section 3 - Series4 CPU Operation This section describes the Series4 CPU Board, giving diagrams and descriptions of major internal buses, functional blocks, and external interfaces. Section 4 - Series5 CPU Operation This section describes the Series5 CPU Board, giving diagrams and deSCriptions of major internal buses, functional blocks, and external interfaces. Section 5 - System Board Operation This section describes the System Board, giving diagrams and descriptions of major internal buses, functional blocks and external interfaces. The System Board is the communications hub for I/O in the system. Section 6 - 16 Mbyte Memory Board Operation This section describes the 16 Mbyte Memory Board, gIVIng diagrams and descriptions of major internal buses, functional blocks, and external interfaces. Section 7 - 32 Mbyte Memory Board Operation This section describes the 32 Mbyte Memory Board, gIvmg diagrams and descriptions of major internal buses, functional blocks, and external interfaces. Section 8 - CG 40 Color Board Operation This section describes the CG 40 Color Board, giving diagrams and deSCriptions of iii major internal buses, functional blocks, and external interfaces. The CG 40 was the original color frame buffer designed by Solbourne. Section 9 - CG 30 Color Board Operation This section describes the CG 30 Color Board, giving diagrams and descriptions of major internal buses, functional blocks, and external interfaces. The CG 30 provides a performance improvement over the CG 40. iv Table of Contents Section 1: System Overview ......................................................................................................................... 1-1 1.1 Introduction .................................................................................................................................... 1-1 1.1.2 Series4 and Series5 CPU Boards ......................................................................................... 1-1 1.1.3 Series4 and Series5 Implementations ................................................................................ 1-1 1.2 Major System Functions ............................................................................................................... 1-2 1.3 Kbus .................................................................................................................................................. 1-5 1.4 VMEbus ........................................................................................................................................... 1-5 1.S CPU Boards ..................................................................................................................................... 1-6 1.6 System Board .................................................................................................................................. 1-6 1.7 CG 30 Color Board ......................................................................................................................... 1-7 1.8 Memory Boards .............................................................................................................................. 1-8 1.9 Peripherals ....................................................................................................................................... 1-8 Section 2: Kbus Operation ............................................................................................................................. 2-1 2.1 Introduction .................................................................................................................................... 2-1 2.2 Kbus Organization ........................................................................................................................ 2-2 2.3 Bus Arbitration ............................................................................................................................... 2-5 2.4 Transactions .................................................................................................................................... 2-6 2.4.1 Cache Memory Transactions ............................................................................................... 2-6 2.4.2 RIO Transactions ................................................................................................................... 2-7 2.4.3 Other Transactions ................................................................................................................ 2-7 2.5 Cache Protocol ................................................................................................................................ 2-7 2.6 System Interrupts .......................................................................................................................... 2-8 Section 3: Series4 CPU Board Operation .................................................................................................... 3-1 3.1 Introduction .................................................................................................................................... 3-1 3.2 CPU Board Address, Data, and Control Buses ........................................................................ 3-2 3.3 CPU Section .................................................................................................................................... 3-8 3.3.1 CPU Subsection ...................................................................................................................... 3-9 3.3.2 MMU Subsection ................................................................................................................... 3-11 3.3.3 Cache Tag Subsection ........................................................................................................... 3-12 3.3.4 Cache Subsection ................................................................................................................... 3-13 3.4 Kbus Interface Section .................................................................................................................. 3-13 3.4.1 ROM Subsection ........................................................................ ;........................................... 3-14 3.4.2 Bus Launcher Subsection ............. ;......................................................................................

  • Overview of the SPEC Benchmarks
    9 Overview of the SPEC Benchmarks Kaivalya M. Dixit IBM Corporation “The reputation of current benchmarketing claims regarding system performance is on par with the promises made by politicians during elections.” Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) was founded in October, 1988, by Apollo, Hewlett-Packard,MIPS Computer Systems and SUN Microsystems in cooperation with E. E. Times. SPEC is a nonprofit consortium of 22 major computer vendors whose common goals are “to provide the industry with a realistic yardstick to measure the performance of advanced computer systems” and to educate consumers about the performance of vendors’ products. SPEC creates, maintains, distributes, and endorses a standardized set of application-oriented programs to be used as benchmarks. 489 490 CHAPTER 9 Overview of the SPEC Benchmarks 9.1 Historical Perspective Traditional benchmarks have failed to characterize the system performance of modern computer systems. Some of those benchmarks measure component-level performance, and some of the measurements are routinely published as system performance. Historically, vendors have characterized the performances of their systems in a variety of confusing metrics. In part, the confusion is due to a lack of credible performance information, agreement, and leadership among competing vendors. Many vendors characterize system performance in millions of instructions per second (MIPS) and millions of floating-point operations per second (MFLOPS). All instructions, however, are not equal. Since CISC machine instructions usually accomplish a lot more than those of RISC machines, comparing the instructions of a CISC machine and a RISC machine is similar to comparing Latin and Greek. 9.1.1 Simple CPU Benchmarks Truth in benchmarking is an oxymoron because vendors use benchmarks for marketing purposes.

A given ISA may be implemented with different microarchitectures.[1] Implementations might vary due to different goals of a given design or due to shifts in technology.[2] Computer architecture is the combination of microarchitecture and instruction set design. Relation to instruction set architecture The ISA is roughly the same as the programming model of a processor as seen by an assembly language programmer or compiler writer. The ISA includes the execution model, processor registers, address and data formats among other things. The Intel Core microarchitecture microarchitecture includes the constituent parts of the processor and how these interconnect and interoperate to implement the ISA. The microarchitecture of a machine is usually represented as (more or less detailed) diagrams that describe the interconnections of the various microarchitectural elements of the machine, which may be everything from single gates and registers, to complete arithmetic logic units (ALU)s and even larger elements.

Abstract Beside traditional direct solvers iterative methods offer an efficient alternative for the solution of systems of linear equations which arise in the solution of partial differen- tial equations (PDEs). Among them, multigrid algorithms belong to the most efficient methods based on the number of operations required to achieve a good approximation of the solution. The relevance of the number of arithmetic operations performed by an application as a metric for the complexity of an algorithm wanes since the performance of modern computing systems nowadays is limited by memory latency and bandwidth. Consequently, almost all computer manufacturers nowadays equip their computers with cache–based hierarchical memory systems. Thus, the efficiency of multigrid methods is rather determined by good data locality, i.e. good utilization of data caches, than by the number of arithmetic operations.
