dc.description.abstractIn challenging domains requiring high-dependability, such as space and some medical applications, the reliance on radiation-hardened components, such as processors and memory, restricts the choice of hardware for implementing modern and computationally intensive algorithms, particularly AI-based classifications with real-time constraints. To address this limitation we propose the adaptation of a well-understood AI-runtime inference framework and Streaming Distribution Optimiser (SDO), both from Klepsydra, for execution on the High Performance Data Processor (HPDP), a radiation-hardened co-processor known for its low power consumption, flexibility, and run-time re-programmability. The AI-pipeline has demonstrated a significant increase in data processing rates (up to 10x) and a 50% reduction in energy consumption on standard computing hardware by utilizing lock-free execution. The SDO, utilizes Genetic Algorithms (GA) to optimize the distribution of computing resources for executing AI models on the target processor, prioritizing factors such as latency, power consumption, and/or data rate. Our proposed solution entails a port of the AI-pipeline and SDO for the HPDP which eliminates the need for HPDP-specific coding and ensure compatibility with major AI frameworks. We present the results of our implementation, outlining the application domain, the optimized AI pipeline, and the key features of the HPDP processor. The structured partitioning of the AI pipeline across various processors and functional units is described, along with performance measurements and conclusions. Our proposed solution simplifies the deployment of AI models on radiation-hardened processing platforms making it an attractive option for European Space Agency (ESA) future missions with high availability requirements, such as landers and deep space robotics. This hardware/software stack represents a fully European solution, enhancing Europe's capacity to leverage AI in space applications.de_CH
