ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems (TECS) just accepted our article “Process-Variation Aware Mapping of Best-Effort and Real-Time Streaming Applications to MPSoCs”. This work discusses how to efficiently map streaming applications, represented as synchronous data-flow graphs, with different types of real-time requirements to multi-processor systems affected by process variation (maximum frequencies of each processor follows a statistical distribution). The main goal is to map the tasks of the applications to the system in such a way that the probability of satisfying the real-time requirements of the applications is maximized. This work is an extension of the conference paper “Process-Variation Aware Mapping of Real-Time Streaming Applications to MPSoCs for Improved Yield”, presented at ISQED in 2012. The camera-ready version is available here.
