However, for hardware architecture, to efficiently load and operate on the nonzero data with high parallelism is a great challenge due to the random location of pruned weights. To address this issue, a sparsity aware CNN accelerator is proposed in this work to process the irregularly pruned CNN models. A candidate pool architecture is designed to only pick the randomly needed activations chosen by nonzero weights. It is set as a three-dimensional structure to relieve the problem of workload imbalance caused by random nonzero weight locations and high parallelism. Besides, a dedicated indexing method is designed to cooperate with the candidate pool architecture to accomplish the whole sparse dataflow. The proposed sparsity aware CNN accelerator is demonstrated on Intel Arria 10 FPGA for multiple popular CNN models that achieves up to 89.7% throughput improvement compared to the baseline design.","PeriodicalId":127075,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Asia Pacific Conference on Circuits and Systems (APCCAS)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123346548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In general, the squaring operation takes a significant proportion of VDF computation. Moreover, the squaring over a class group, including large-number extended greatest common divisor (GCD) computations, divisions, and multiplications, is extremely hard to be accelerated in hardware. In this paper, for the first time, we propose an efficient architecture for squaring by utilizing many algorithmic transformations and architectural optimizations to reduce the critical path and calculation cycles. Firstly, the squaring algorithm is modified to achieve partial parallel computing, and a very hardware-efficient extended GCD algorithm is selected to reduce the whole computation cycles. Secondly, highly-parallelized architectures for large-number division and multiplication are devised respectively. Finally, the proposed architecture is coded using hardware description language (HDL) and synthesized under the TSMC 28-nm CMOS technology. The synthesis results show that the proposed design with the input width of 2048 bits averagely takes 6.319us per squaring at a frequency of 500 MHz. Compared to the original squaring with the same setting running over an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6850K 3.60GHz CPU, our design achieves about 2x speedup.","PeriodicalId":127075,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Asia Pacific Conference on Circuits and Systems (APCCAS)","volume":"32 11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123803412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to their high inaccuracy of handling structures with large scale and complexity, traditional empirical EM prediction methods are not applicable for modern power grids. In this paper, we propose a novel analytical model of hydrostatic stress evolution during the void growth phase for general multi-segment wires, common interconnect structures in power grids, based on the adoption of Laplace transformation on Korhonen’s equation with coupled boundary conditions (BCs). The analytical solution is expressed with a set of auxiliary basis functions using the complementary error function. With analysis of the analytical expression form, the compact model is presented for practical EM analysis. Compared with the finite element analysis (FEA) results, our compact model can lead to less than 0.50% error on average for multi-segment wires extracted from IBM power grid benchmarks.","PeriodicalId":127075,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Asia Pacific Conference on Circuits and Systems (APCCAS)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133204256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it also introduces excessive conservative timing margins. The timing resilient circuit was proved to be a promising solution to mitigate excessive timing margins. To realize more energy-efficient IC systems, the timing resilient circuits should be designed to be miniaturized and operate in wide-voltage-range (down to NTV).This paper develops a lightweight timing resilient scheme to enable the near-threshold efficient ICs. The proposed scheme based on our node transition signal detector (NTSD) design with merely 9 extra transistors. Combined with the data strobe Flip-Flops, the circuits are inserted into monitored points of the target ICs. To further reduce the overhead, we develop the mean-time-to-failure aware hybrid selection algorithm. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme enable the 40-nm CNN accelerator to work robustly at 0.38-1.1V with only 3.5% extra area overhead. Moreover, this scheme reduce area overhead by 54.68% and improve energy efficiency by 53.69% at 0.6V, compared with the presented Razor scheme. The advantage of our proposed method lies in that it consumes less extra overhead and can work stably in a wider voltage range.","PeriodicalId":127075,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Asia Pacific Conference on Circuits and Systems (APCCAS)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125823073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
