Dynamic Power Management for Neuromorphic Many-Core Systems

no code implementations21 Mar 2019 Sebastian Hoeppner, Bernhard Vogginger, Yexin Yan, Andreas Dixius, Stefan Scholze, Johannes Partzsch, Felix Neumaerker, Stephan Hartmann, Stefan Schiefer, Georg Ellguth, Love Cederstroem, Luis Plana, Jim Garside, Steve Furber, Christian Mayr

By measurement of three neuromorphic benchmarks it is shown that the total PE power consumption can be reduced by 75%, with 80% baseline power reduction and a 50% reduction of energy per neuron and synapse computation, all while maintaining temporary peak system performance to achieve biological real-time operation of the system.

Introducing SLAMBench, a performance and accuracy benchmarking methodology for SLAM

3 code implementations8 Oct 2014 Luigi Nardi, Bruno Bodin, M. Zeeshan Zia, John Mawer, Andy Nisbet, Paul H. J. Kelly, Andrew J. Davison, Mikel Luján, Michael F. P. O'Boyle, Graham Riley, Nigel Topham, Steve Furber

Real-time dense computer vision and SLAM offer great potential for a new level of scene modelling, tracking and real environmental interaction for many types of robot, but their high computational requirements mean that use on mass market embedded platforms is challenging.
