Automatic Mapping Tasks to Cores - Evaluating AMTHA Algorithm in Multicore Architectures
The AMTHA (Automatic Mapping Task on Heterogeneous
Architectures) algorithm for task-to-processors assignment and
the MPAHA (Model of Parallel Algorithms on Heterogeneous
Architectures) model are presented.
The use of AMTHA is analyzed for multicore processor-based
architectures, considering the communication model among
processes in use.
The results obtained in the tests carried out are presented,
comparing the real execution times on multicores of a set of
synthetic applications with the predictions obtained with
AMTHA.
Finally current lines of research are presented, focusing on
clusters of multicores and hybrid programming paradigms.
