　　摘要：Heterogeneous hardware has been an important trend in recent development of computing systems, ranging from “small” ones such as internet of things and edge, to “big” ones such as data centers. We are facing the challenges (and also opportunities) at all levels ranging from sophisticated algorithms and procedures to high-performance computing (HPC) techniques and systems to achieve our design goals on performance, energy consumption, or both. How to leverage emerging hardware has become a hot research topic to tame the challenges of those computing systems. Our research has been on the novel design and implementation of computing systems and tools on emerging hardware (many-core CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs etc). In this talk, I will present our research efforts in developing bare metal computing systems on emerging hardware, and demonstrate the significant performance impact of hardware-conscious designs.
