Abstract

Highly concurrent systems occur frequently in the physical world. This paper focuses on a class of systems characterised as being highly concurrent and which are composed out of many simple parts which interact with other parts in their locality. It discusses how to describe these systems and introduces a cellular automata type of architecture which is used to simulate these systems directly in hardware, with physical concurrency being realised by true hardware concurrency. The architecture of the SPACE machine (Scalable Parallel Architecture for Concurrency Experiments), which is constructed from reconfigurable FPGA logic, is introduced and it is demonstrated how to simulate road traffic systems using it.<>

在SPACE机器上实现大规模并发系统

高度并发的系统在物理世界中经常出现。本文主要研究一类具有高度并发性的系统，这些系统由许多简单的部分组成，这些部分与局部的其他部分相互作用。它讨论了如何描述这些系统，并介绍了一种元胞自动机类型的体系结构，该体系结构用于直接在硬件中模拟这些系统，通过真正的硬件并发实现物理并发。介绍了由可重构FPGA逻辑构成的SPACE机器(Scalable Parallel architecture for Concurrency Experiments)的体系结构，并演示了如何使用它来模拟道路交通系统。
