Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 電機工程研究所 === 84 === This thesis proposes a new submesh allocation scheme for two- dimensional mesh systems. The proposed submesh detection mechanism considers only those available free submeshes that border from the left on the allocated submeshes. Consequently, fragmentation can be reduced. An efficient method is then presented to facilitate the detection of such available submeshes. The method is simple and causes little overhead in terms of time and storage space. It guarantees to identify an available submesh as long as it exists. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. In particular, the simple first-fit-oriented assignment policies are found to be well suited with our mechanism. The proposed scheme is also extended to multidimensional meshes.
