Abstract: A non-intrusive debugging framework for parallel software based on a super multi-core framework is composed of a plurality of core clusters. Each of the core clusters includes a plurality of core processors and a debug node. Each of the core processors includes a DCP. The DCPs and the debug node are interconnected via at least one channel to constitute a communication network inside each of the core clusters. The core clusters are interconnected via a ring network. In this way, the memory inside each of the debug nodes constitutes a non-uniform debug memory space for debugging without affecting execution of the parallel program, such that it is applicable to current diversified dynamic debugging methods under the super multi-core system.

Abstract: With the present invention, buses and silicon IPs are simulated together. A virtual platform is provided for designing hardware and system. And correct and fast simulations of I/Os are provided through the I/Os on a FPGA. Thus, software performances are monitored and system bottlenecks are acquired.
