GemStone is an innovative full system performance that consists of five software tools that, together, identify and evaluate the sources of error in gem5 models against a reference hardware (HW) platform by utilising statistical and machine learning approaches. Independently, the tools serve many purposes: Automating the running of experiments and collection of Performance Monitoring Counters […]

PRiME is pleased to announce the release of PRiME Framework which enables application- and platform-agnostic runtime management. Being able to balance the competing needs of application performance with the minimisation of system power is essential for future systems and one way to achieve this is with application-aware runtime management of system behaviour. There are many runtime management […]

PRiME has made available another free, open source software tool developed as part of its research activities. KOCL (“KAPow for OpenCL”) is PRiME’s automated tool flow for generating FPGA designs capable of accelerating OpenCL kernel execution whilst reporting their own power consumption. The tool was created by PRiME researchers at Imperial College as part of […]

Explaining advanced electronics/computer science research to the general public can be challenging! However, an important part of PRiME’s remit is to explain to a wider audience what our publicly funded research is trying to achieve and how the research is progressing. To do this effectively, especially to an audience of mainly late primary/early secondary age […]

Three PRiME researchers attended the Farnborough International Air Show Futures Day on July 15th 2016. Futures Day opens the Air Show Exhibition to schools and other youth organisations, with the objective of inspiring the younger generation to enter into a career in Aerospace. Over 5,000 children from the region attend the show and participate in […]

PRiME’s applications and benchmarks report is now available. See the link below.

PRiME is pleased to announce the release of PRiME Stereo Match software  – a heterogeneous and fully parallel stereo matching algorithm for video depth estimation, available in both OpenCL and C++. Stereo Matching is based on the disparity estimation algorithm. This is an algorithm which is designed to calculate 3D depth information about a scene […]

The University of Southampton held its annual Science and Technology day on Saturday 12 March, as part of British Science Week. This public engagement event opens up many parts of the University and its facilities and labs, with the aim of presenting the science and technology work being undertaken in an accessible way to members […]

Modelling the interplay between Performance, Energy and Reliability (PER) in multi- and many-core systems has been one of the main objectives within the PRiME project. This has led to the development of the idea to represent PER interplay as a region of reliable operation in the throughput-voltage space. This region is defined by platform-specific constraints […]
