Abstract
Monolithic designs face significant fabrication cost and data movement challenges, especially when executing complex and diverse AI models. Advanced 2.5D/3D packaging promises high bandwidth and connection density to overcome these challenges, yet it also introduces new electro-thermal constraints. This article develops a suite of analytical performance models to enable efficient benchmarking of a 2.5D/3D heterogeneous system for energy-efficient AI computing. These models encompass various performance metrics related to computing units, network-on-chip (NoC), and network-on-package (NoP). The results are summarized into a new tool, HISIM, which is $10^{4} \times $ –$10^{6} \times $ faster than state-of-the-art AI benchmark tools. Furthermore, HISIM integrates rapid thermal simulation for the 2.5D/3D system, helping shed light on both the potential and limitations of 2.5D/3D heterogeneous integration (HI) on representative AI algorithms. The code of HISIM is available at https://github.com/mec-UMN/HISIM.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of this Transactions is to publish papers of interest to individuals in the area of computer-aided design of integrated circuits and systems composed of analog, digital, mixed-signal, optical, or microwave components. The aids include methods, models, algorithms, and man-machine interfaces for system-level, physical and logical design including: planning, synthesis, partitioning, modeling, simulation, layout, verification, testing, hardware-software co-design and documentation of integrated circuit and system designs of all complexities. Design tools and techniques for evaluating and designing integrated circuits and systems for metrics such as performance, power, reliability, testability, and security are a focus.
