Recently, the multi-core processor architecture is widely used in the digital signal processors for enhancing its performance. Multi-core processors are classified either as symmetric or asymmetric. Asymmetric multi-core processors are known to have higher performance and more efficient than symmetric multi-core processors. In order to study the performance enhancement of asymmetric multi-core digital signal processors over the symmetric ones, the trace-driven simulation has been executed for various asymmetric quad-core, octa-core and hexadeca-core digital signal processors and compared with the symmetric ones of similar hardware budget using UTDSP benchmarks as input.

If trace-driven or execution-driven simulation is used for the performance analysis of asymmetric multi-core processors, excessive time and much disk space are necessary. In this paper, statistical simulations are performed for asymmetric multi-core processors with various hardware configurations. For the experiment, SPEC 2000 benchmark programs are used for profiling and synthesis, which is supplied as input for the simulation of asymmetric multi-core processors. As a result, the performance of asymmetric multi-core processor obtained by statistical simulation is comparable to that of the trace-driven simulation with a tremendous reduction in the simulation time.

Recently, the multi-core processor architecture is widely adopted in the embedded processors for enhancing its performance. Multi-core processors are classified either as symmetric or asymmetric. Asymmetric multicore processors are known to score higher performance and more efficient than symmetric multi-core processors. In order to study the performance enhancement of asymmetric multi-core embedded processors over the symmetric ones, the trace-driven simulation has been executed for various asymmetric embedded dual-core, quad-core, octa-core and hexadeca-core processors and compared with the symmetric ones of similar hardware budget using MiBench benchmarks as input.

In this paper, we proposed an asymmetric multi-core processor scheduling scheme which is based on the mileage of each core. We considered a big-LITTLE multi-core processor structure, which consists of low power consuming LITTLE cores with general performance and high power consuming big cores with high performance. If a task needs to be processed, the processor decides a core type (big or LITTLE) to handle the task, and then investigate the core with the shortest mileage among unoccupied cores. Then assigns the task to the core. We developed a mileage-based balancing algorithm for asymmetric multi-core assignment and showed that the proposed scheduling scheme is more cost-effective compared to the traditional scheme from a management perspective. Simulation is also conducted for the purpose of performance evaluation of our proposed algorithm.

Recently, the importance of multicore processor system is growing rapidly. Multicore processors are classified either as symmetric or asymmetric. Asymmetric multicore processors consist of a high performance complex core and number of low performance simple cores, and are known to be more efficient than symmetric multicore processors. Therefore, performance impact on various configurations of asymmetric multi-core processor needs to be studied. Using SPEC 2000 benchmarks as input, the trace-driven simulation has been performed for different asymmetric quad-core and octa-core processors and compared to the corresponding symmetric ones.

In this paper, we examine Asymmetric Multi-Processing Environment to provide LDW service. Asymmetric Multi-Processing Environment consists of high-speed MCU to support rapid image processing and low-speed MCU for controlling with other ECU at the control domain. Also we designed rapid image process application and LDW application Software Component(SW-C) according to the development process rule of AUTOSAR. To communicate between two MCUs, timer based polling based IPC was designed. Also to communicate with other ECUs(Electronic Control Units), we designed CAN messages to provide alarm information and receiving CAN message to catch the Turn signal. We confirm the possibility of the various ADAS development using an Asymmetric Multi-Processing Environment and AUTOSAR platform. We also expect providing ISO 26262 functional safety.

Recently, avionics has been migrating from a federated architecture to an integrated modular architecture based on a multi-core to reduce the number of systems, weight, power consumption, and platform redundancy. The volume of data which must bo provided to the pilot through the display device has increased, because an integrated single device performs multiple functions. For this reason, the volume of data processed by the graphic processor within a fixed operation period has increased. In this paper, we provide a multi-core-based rendering engine in to perform more graphics processing within a fixed operation period. We assume the proposed method uses a multi-core-based partitioning operating system using the AMP (Asymmetric Multi-Processing) architecture.
