| Abstract | Distributed S-NET is a declarative coordination language and component technology primarily aimed at modern multi-core/many-core chip architectures. It builds on the concept of stream processing to structure dynamically evolving networks of communicating asynchronous components. These components themselves are implemented using a conventional language suitable for the application domain. Our goal is to map Distributed S-NET to the Intel SCC processor in order to provide users with a simplified programming environment, yet still allowing them to make use of the advanced features of the SCC architecture. Following a brief introduction to the design principles of S-NET, we sketch out the general ideas of our implementation approach. These mainly concern the use of SCC’s message passing buffers for lightweight communication of S-NET records and control data between cores as well as remapping of large data structures through lookup table manipulation. The latter avoids costly memory copy operations that would result from more traditional message passing approaches. Last, but not least, we present prototypical performance measurements for our communication primitives. |
