RAMP-White: An FPGA-Based Coherent Shared Memory Parallel Computer Emulator

Overview RAMP-White is an FPGA-based coherent shared memory research platform. It is one of the three initial prototypes being developed by the RAMP (Research Accelerator for Multiple Processors) group. In the spirit of the RAMP project, RAMP-White has been architected to emphasize flexibility over raw performance. This paper describes the architecture of RAMP-White. RAMP-White is designed to provide a configurable coherent shared memory research platform while also demonstrating how large systems can be assembled using RAMP modules. The platform is sufficiently flexible to handle different coherency protocols, memory hierarchies and even processor ISAs and implementations.
