Think Silicon is very pleased to announce its participation at the 14th International Symposium on Applied Reconfigurable Computing (ARC 2018) which is held these days, from the 2nd to 4th of May, at Santorini, Greece. The International Symposium of Applied Reconfigurable Computing (ARC) aims to bring together researchers and practitioners of reconfigurable computing with an emphasis on practical applications of this promising technology. This year’s Symposium will have a series of international invited speakers who will express their views on the future of reconfigurable technology.
During this event, Dr. Georgios Keramidas, Chief Scientific Officer of Think Silicon S.A., gave a very interesting presentation about Low-Power Parallel Computing on GPUs, which refers to the work performed within the LPGPU2 project funded from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 688759. Application developers are seriously hindered when creating low-power GPU software by the limited quality of current performance analysis tools. In low-power GPU contexts there is only a minimal amount of performance information, and essentially no power information, available to the programmer. As software becomes more complex it becomes increasingly unmanageable for programmers to optimise the software for low-power devices. Within this project a complete performance and power analysis process for the programmer has been created to aid the application developer in creating software for low-power GPUs.
