Invasive Computing - A Systems Programming Perspective
Wolfgang Schröder-Preikschat
Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg
Invasive Computing is a research program that aims at developing a new
paradigm to address the hardware- and software challenges of managing and using
massively-parallel MPSoCs of the years 2020 and beyond. The program is guiding
idea of a corresponding Transregional Collaborative Research Center funded by
the DFG in its second periods of four years (07/2014-06/2018). It encompasses
thirteen projects from the areas of computer architecture, system software,
programming systems, algorithm engineering and applications. Basic concept is
to let applications manage the available computing resources on a local scope
and to provide means for a dynamic and fine-grained expansion and contraction
of parallelism. This talk provides a brief overview of the program and presents
thoughts and intermediate results on system software support for it.
