Abstract
Describes two novel features that are supported in GRAPE-II (Graphical RApid Prototyping Environment): geometric parallelism and cyclo-static data flow. GRAPE-II is intended as a system level tool for the rapid prototyping of digital signal processing (DSP) applications on multiprocessors. GRAPE-II fully supports code generation for multi-rate and asynchronous DSP applications on heterogeneous target multiprocessors. The first feature detailed in the paper, geometric parallelism, allows the programmer to efficiently specify data parallel operations, where multiple identical functions operate on different data sets. The second feature, cyclo-static data flow, enables the specification of cyclicly changing data dependencies, while still leading to static schedules.<>
