摘要
The extreme Processing Platform (XPP) is a new runtime-reconfigurable data processing architecture. It is based on a hierarchical array of coarse-grain, adaptive computing elements, and a packet-oriented communication network. The strength of the XPP technology originates from the combination of array processing with unique, powerful run-time reconfiguration mechanisms. Parts of the array can be configured rapidly in parallel while neighboring computing elements are processing data. Reconfiguration is triggered externally or even by special event signals originating within the array, enabling self-reconfiguring designs. The XPP architecture is designed to support different types of parallelism: pipelining, instruction level, data flow, and task level parallelism. Therefore this technology is well suited for applications in multimedia, telecommunications, simulation, signal processing (DSP), graphics, and similar stream-based application domains. The anticipated peak performance of a first commercial device running at 50 MHz is estimated to be 19.2 GigaOps/sec, and the peak I/O bandwidth 3 GByte/see. Simulated applications achieve up to 14.7 GigaOps/sec (32-bit fixed point).
