DESCRIPTION:This presentation provides an overview of the status of work t
 o provide a scalable multicore research platform that boots an OS (Linux) 
 and supports the integration of heterogeneous ISAs and hardware accelerato
 rs. Given the importance of memory interactions in these systems\, the tea
 m has built a scalable platform that can be instantiated on a FPGA with di
 fferent configurations that can be scrutinized at run time using configura
 ble performance monitors. The FUSE API\, developed independently\, is now 
 being integrated to support research into heterogeneous multicore platform
 s.\n\nBio:\nLesley Shannon is an Associate Professor in the School of Engi
 neering Science at Simon Fraser University\, Canada. She received her Bach
 elor's Degree from the University of New Brunswick in Electrical and Compu
 ter Engineering in 1999\, and then completed her M.A.Sc. and her Ph.D. at 
 the University of Toronto in 2001 and 2006\, respectively. Her primary are
 a of interest is Computing System Design\, specifically: Reconfigurable Co
 mputing and Application-Specific Architectures\, FPGA Computer Aided Desig
 n (CAD) tools\, Operating System Abstractions and Scheduling for Asymmetri
 c/Heterogeneous Multicore Systems\, and Reconfigurable Microfluidics.
