In today’s high performance computer systems and particularly the more resource-intensive ones, like servers, the I/O transactions that read data from a hard disk or a network card, constitute a significant part of the overall workload, making them an essential part for a successful system in terms of performance. Most of today’s peripheral devices bypass the processor to minimize the […]
eProcessor organizes its first workshop on 28/4/22 in Tampere as part of HiPEAC Computing Systems Week 2022. Stay tuned at https://www.hipeac.net/csw/2022/tampere/#/program/sessions/7977/
eProcessor has been presented at the ‘Parallel Programming’ course at Koç University as part of the eProcessor-Sparcity EuroHPC collaboration plan on Monday 8/11/2021 !
Multi-core processors have become ubiquitous across domains ranging from embedded systems to data centers because of their ability to facilitate energy-efficient high performance computing. The architecture of a typical multi-core processor mainly comprises cores that are the computational workhorses, caches that act as buffers to reduce access latency to memory and an interconnection network that connects all the on chip […]
The eProcessor project is an ambitious combination of processor design, based on the RISC-V open source hardware ISA, applications and system software, bringing together multiple partners to leverage and extend pre-existing Intellectual Property (IP), combined with new IP that can be used as building blocks for future HPC systems, both for traditional and emerging application domains. As such, the eProcessor […]
A European project is developing a high performance RISC-V processor for supercomputer designs and derivatives for automotive and edge IoT. The €8m eProcessor project is using a high-performance Out-of-Order (OoO) processor core based on the RISC-V instruction set architecture as the first high performance computing ecosystem. The three year project is led by the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre and is supported by […]
With a budget of 8 million euros over the next three years, the eProcessor project aims to develop the first European open source chip. A chip with RISC-V architecture, which seeks to become the free alternative to Intel, AMD and ARM-based designs. The eProcessor project will be framed within other supercomputing projectssuch as the ‘European Processor Initiative’, ‘Low-Energy Toolset for Heterogeneous Computing’, […]
Watch our talk on eProcessor’s RISC-V at 2nd workshop on RISC-V and OpenPOWER in HPC at the ICS International Conference on Supercomputing 2021 : More info here.
Visit us from 24 June – 2 July at RISC-V Int’l ISC virtual booth.
A major milestone towards building entirely made-in-Europe future High Performance Computing (HPC) systems: 10 Partners from 6 EU Member States join forces to build the first 100% European out-of-order (OoO) RISC-V core, a set of advanced tightly couple accelerators, as well as the novel software suite which will take full advantage of the novel processing unit. The eProcessor ecosystem combines […]
