"Smarter" NICs for faster molecular dynamics: a case study
Sara Karamati, Clayton Hughes, K. Scott Hemmert +6
This work evaluates the benefits of using a "smart" network interface card (SmartNIC) as a compute accelerator for the example of the MiniMD molecular dynamics proxy application. T…
Online Model Swapping in Architectural Simulation
Patrick Lavin, Jeffrey Young, Rich Vuduc +1
As systems and applications grow more complex, detailed simulation takes an ever increasing amount of time. The prospect of increased simulation time resulting in slower design ite…
Programming Strategies for Irregular Algorithms on the Emu Chick
Eric Hein, Srinivas Eswar, Abdurrahman Yaşar +7
The Emu Chick prototype implements migratory memory-side processing in a novel hardware system. Rather than transferring large amounts of data across the system interconnect, the E…
Spatter: A Tool for Evaluating Gather / Scatter Performance
Patrick Lavin, Jeffrey Young, Jason Riedy +3
This paper describes a new benchmark tool, Spatter, for assessing memory system architectures in the context of a specific category of indexed accesses known as gather and scatter.…
A Microbenchmark Characterization of the Emu Chick
Jeffrey S. Young, Eric Hein, Srinivas Eswar +5
The Emu Chick is a prototype system designed around the concept of migratory memory-side processing. Rather than transferring large amounts of data across power-hungry, high-latenc…
Wrangling Rogues: Managing Experimental Post-Moore Architectures
Will Powell, Jason Riedy, Jeffrey S. Young +1
The Rogues Gallery is a new experimental testbed that is focused on tackling "rogue" architectures for the Post-Moore era of computing. While some of these devices have roots in th…
