Abstract: OpenSPARC Tutorial at ASPLOS XII - Twelfth International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems on October 21, 2006 at the Hilton Hotel, San Jose, CA.

  • The tutorial will provide the background for building systems and software using the OpenSPARC design.  Members of the OpenSPARC T1 development team will present an introduction to OpenSPARC T1, including:
    • Overview of OpenSPARC processor architecture (changes since SPARC V9) and OpenSPARC T1 microarchitecture (processor organization, pipeline, threading model)
    • SAM-T1 simulation tools for OpenSPARC (architecture model, full-system simulation platform, device models, device driver development, trace generation, user interface, etc)
    • Virtualization on OpenSPARC: Porting /your/ operating system on top of the Hypervisor
    • Maximizing the benefits of CMT with CoolTool development tools (compilers, GCC, etc)
    • Creating optimal SPARC executables using the Automated Tuning System (ATS)
