하이브리드 SPM을 위한 버퍼 공유를 활용한 새로운 버퍼 매핑 기법

Abstract

This paper proposes a new lifetime aware buffer mapping method of a synchronous dataflow (SDF) graph on a hybrid memory system with DRAM and PRAM. Since the number of write operations on PRAM is limited, the number of written samples on PRAM is minimized to maximize the lifetime of PRAM. We improve the utilization of DRAM by mapping more buffers on DRAM through buffer sharing. The problem is formulated formally and solved by an optimal approach of an answer set programming. In experiment, the buffer mapping method with buffer sharing improves the PRAM lifetime by 63%.
