For many of today’s embedded applications, compute requirements demand multiple cores (compute units). These applications also run various types of workloads. A ...

The days of “throwing it over the wall” are over. Heterogeneous integration is ushering in a new era of silicon chip design with collaboration at its core—one that lives or dies on seamless ...

AMD’s Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) hardware framework provides Heterogeneous Uniform Memory Access (hUMA) to CPUs and GPUs (Fig. 1). It radically changes the way CPUs and GPUs will interact ...

This review article, authored by Dr. Weidong Zhang’s team from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, was recently published in the journal Robot Learning. Focusing on the increasingly prominent topic of ...

is changing the software equation with its Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) design (see Unified CPU/GPU Memory Architecture Raises The Performance Bar). It is a hardware architecture based on ...
