Abstract

To bring out high performance in applications running on a CELL Broadband Engine processor (CELL processor), developers have to know its architecture and have special skills of the programming. As we know, the CELL processor is suitable for stream processing, but the CELL processor itself is not specialized for stream processing and the SDK of the CELL processor does not support stream processing. In this paper, we focus on stream processing on the CELL processor, and we design and implement a system to support stream processing for the CELL processor. We evaluate the performance of stream processing on the CELL processor with our approach. The result shows the effectiveness of stream processing for the CELL processor.
