Abstract:

Imagine is a stream processor aiming at media applications. However, whether scientific computing applications are suited for Imagine is a hot topic.   In this paper, we propose an efficient stream program development technique on Imagine for matrix-vector multiplication, which is a representative scien tific computing kernel. Especially, we propose four different program versions of this kernel, and explore efficient programming optimizations. The experimental results show that matrix-vector multiplication can efficiently exploit the tremendous potential of the Imagine stream processor through program  ming optimization.
