This page is a list of project ideas. Many of these are designed to help future to students learn to use Convey.

Tutorials

Tutorial 2: Memory Controllers

Project description: This tutorial would follow the same structure as tutorial 1. It would have 2 parts: a and b. Part a: start by using the newCnyProject script and end with a personality that writes 8 bytes to memory. Part b: start from the end of part a and end with a personality that reads 8 bytes from memory.

The deliverables would be a tutorial document and 2 examples. The 2 examples would be what the tutorial user should have at the end of part a and b.

Current Developers: none

difficulty: low

Tutorial 3: Summation

Project description: Create a summation personality. cae_vadd does this, but it does vector vector addition as well.

Current Developers: none

difficulty: low

Introduction to floating point

Project description: Make a floating point summation personality.

Current Developers: none

Difficulty: medium

Introduction to parallel algorithms (prefix sums)

Project Description: implement an efficient (O(n/p)) implementation of the prefix sums problem.

Current Developers: none

Difficulty: medium

Feature tutorial

Project Description: Implement an example and tutorial showing one feature. Examples include chipscope, csr, ae-ae ring communication, ect.

Difficulty: low, varies

BLAS Functions

dgemm

Project Description: double precision general matrix matrix multiplication. Create a dgemm implementation with 20 Gflops and 100 Gflops performance for the HC-1 and HC-2 respectively.

Current Developers: none

difficulty: high

Other

VHDL Personality

Project Description: Create a personality entirely written in VHDL. It seems creating a cae_pers.vhdl file should work.

Current Developers: none

difficulty: low to medium
