Query: Executing Dynamic Data Rate Actor Networks on OpenCL Platforms   Heterogeneous computing platforms consisting of general purpose processors
(GPPs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) have become commonplace in personal
mobile devices and embedded systems. For years, programming of these platforms
was very tedious and simultaneous use of all available GPP and GPU resources
required low-level programming to ensure efficient synchronization and data
transfer between processors. However, in the last few years several high-level
programming frameworks have emerged, which enable programmers to describe
applications by means of abstractions such as dataflow or Kahn process networks
and leave parallel execution, data transfer and synchronization to be handled
by the framework.
  Unfortunately, even the most advanced high-level programming frameworks have
had shortcomings that limit their applicability to certain classes of
applications. This paper presents a new, dataflow-flavored programming
framework targeting heterogeneous platforms, and differs from previous
approaches by allowing GPU-mapped actors to have data dependent consumption of
inputs / production of outputs. Such flexibility is essential for configurable
and adaptive applications that are becoming increasingly common in signal
processing. In our experiments it is shown that this feature allows up to 5x
increase in application throughput.
  The proposed framework is validated by application examples from the video
processing and wireless communications domains. In the experiments the
framework is compared to a well-known reference framework and it is shown that
the proposed framework enables both a higher degree of flexibility and better
throughput.
