  2. Agenda • Background • Research Interests

  3. Background • Research Engineer • General Electric Electronics Laboratory • R & D For GE’s Aerospace Business Group • Area: Parallel And Distributed Embedded Systems • Expertise: Chip/Board/System (Architecture&Algorithm) Design • Space Based, Ground Based, Underwater • Signal Processing, Communications Systems • Projects: • Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) • AWACS Re-Design • First Dual Fetch RISC CPU • Underwater Systems Division • Systems Architecture, Operating System For Seawolf Submarine

  4. Background • University of Arkansas • Architecture • Parallel Processing Systems • Systems: Image/Data/Signal Processing • SIMD Arrays, Systolic Arrays, Multiprocessors • Database Accelerator: FPGA Accelerator • Component Research • CPU: Processor In Memory (PIM) • CPU Core Integrated With DRAM • Reconfigurable Processing • Cache: Redesign Caching • Multichip Modules (MCM) • Systems On A Package • Administrative Duties

  5. Current Interests • Networked Embedded Systems • Large Real Time Systems • Heterogeneous “Parallel” Nodes • Node Architectures • Computing Paradigms • Computer Architecture • Data Intensive Architectures • Scalar, Parallel • CPU Cores, Caches • Asynchronous Systems, Optical Systems • Future Paradigms

  6. Networked Embedded Systems • Autonomous “networked” Embedded Systems • Embedded Systems Much More Than Closed Loop Periodic Systems • Dynamic Operation of Real Time Networks • Network Key To New Embedded Systems • Data Sharing/Service Co-ordination • System Resource Management • Dynamic Workloads • Fault Detection/Location • Things break • Models For Data Acquisition and Transfer • Very Dynamic Data Transmission Requirements • Variable Communications Bandwidth Requirements • Buffering

  7. Example Autonomous System

  8. Computer Architecture • General Movement to Systems On A Chip • Integration of Analog/Digital • Data Intensive Architectures • Processor In Memory Approach • D-Base, Multimedia Applications • Low Level Communications • Future Paradigms • Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) Definition • “old” ISA is well… Old…. Von Neumann Load/Store • Asynchronous Paradigm Is Also Interesting
