Kalray MPPA® Manycore
A Massively Parallel Processor Array Architecture
The world is facing an explosion of data which current technologies were not initially designed for and cannot always handle efficiently. The industry needs a new type of processor. Enter the era of Intelligent processors.
The MPPA® interconnects are suited to different types of data transfers. The first interconnect is an AXIFabric bus grid, for read/write accesses from cores to memories and peripherals connected by PCIe. The second interconnect is an RDMANoC(Network-on-Chip), that supports data transfers to or from the Ethernet network interfaces and connects all clusters together.
The overall architecture of the Kalray 3rd generation of MPPA® processor aka Coolidge™ is based on a “Massively Parallel Processor Array” architecture, which is characterized by the association of computing clusters connected to each other, to the external memory and to the I/O interfaces via two independent interconnects.
The robust partitioning necessary for safe operation of the processor is carried out at the granularity of the computing cluster and is based on the configuration of memory management units (MMUs), memory protection units (MPUs), and on the deactivation or not of network on chip links.
