Parallel execution of C functions in TMS320c6678

if you are working in the sysbios environment use getplatformcoreid() funtion to find out which core you are running the code. and read ad do the processing of the data acoordingly (if core0 read 1st 512 else other) , the same code can be run on both cores to get required results.

if you are not using sysbios, you can read the DNUM register of the processor to get the core id and based on that read the memory and process the corresponding data.

both ways you can put a single code to run on both cores processing different data

ok thank you.

so what is the way to do that things? Have you got an example project in which the same function runs in parallel into multiple cores processing different data?

thank you

Hi Carmine,

there's a white paper and an appnote I'd recommend you to read:

Kind regards,

Thank you one and zero! You give me a great starting point...

Searching on the internet I have seen that there is also openMP, what do you think about that? Is a good approach to use openMP with TMS320c6678?

Seems to be not so hard to use because of the single core style coding...

thank you for your answer

Carmine
