Tier 1 Breakout Topics • How to study a 100,000-core system (yes that is 100K) using RAMP technologies? Krste • What "great" research questions can RAMP help answer? What are the RAMP grand challenges? James vs. Dave • What are the standard distribution target machines? In what form should they be distributed?
Tier 2 Breakout Topics • What are the technical obstacles in using commercial IPs in RAMP systems? (E.g., how to incorporate IPs with predefined timing behaviors when using RAMPs abstracted inter-module interface.) • What capabilities are needed in the monitor/logging/debugging facilities for RAMP HW and SW development?
Tier 2 Breakout Topics • How can FPGA and FPGA tools be "improved" to help RAMP? • What are requirements and steps to have a successful roll-out of RAMP HW/SW? (E.g., how will the rollout of RAMP HW/SW be coordinated? How will the inevitable bitrot that develops overtime be addressed?)
New Topics • functional vs timing: 1 combined infrastructure? or better to do separately? • 100,000 cores • hardware virtualization, how to mimic many more CPUs/memory/disks than actually available • How would one develop software for a system with 1K+ processors? • Rollout • How will the rollout of RAMP HW/SW be coordinated? • How will the inevitable bitrot be addressed that will inevitably develop over time?
New Topics • Research problems • RAMP tools and infrastructure for non-architecture research (OS, languages, etc) • How can I use RAMP hardware to estimate the power/energy implications of my hardware and software tradeoffs? • Operation system research issues for a system with 1K+ processors?
