Software architecture for next generation hyperparallel cyber-physical hardware platforms
Moris Behnam, Federico Ciccozzi, Mikael Sjödin, Fredrik C. Bruhn · 2015
We present what is destined to become the de-facto standard for hardware platforms for next generation cyber-physical systems. Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) is an initiative to harmonize the industry around a common architecture which is easier to program and is an open standard defining the key interfaces for parallel computation. Since HSA is supported by virtually all major players in the silicon market we can conjecture that HSA, with its capabilities and quirks, will highly influence both the hardware and software for next generation cyber-physical systems.
