However, the addition of custom functional units to the base processor is required for supporting custom instructions, which due to the increase of manufacturing and design costs in new nanometer-scale technologies and shorter time-to-market, is becoming an issue. To address above issues, in our proposed approach, an optimized reconfigurable functional unit is used instead, and instruction set customization is done after chip-fabrication. Therefore, while maintaining the flexibility of a conventional microprocessor, the low-energy feature of customization is applicable. Experimental results show that the maximum and average energy savings are 67% and 22%, respectively for our proposed architecture framework.","PeriodicalId":166672,"journal":{"name":"Proceeding of the 13th international symposium on Low power electronics and design (ISLPED '08)","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134156770","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}

Several circuit optimization techniques have been proposed in the literature for preventing soft errors in logic circuits. However, most approaches do not incorporate the effects of other design metrics like delay and power while optimizing the circuit for soft error protection. In this work, we develop a first order model of the soft error phenomenon in logic circuits and incorporate power and delay metrics to formulate a convex programming based reliability-centric gate sizing technique. The proposed algorithm has been implemented and validated on the ISCASS85 benchmarks. Experimental results indicate that our multi-objective optimization technique can achieve significant reductions in soft error rate with simultaneous optimization of delay and power.","PeriodicalId":166672,"journal":{"name":"Proceeding of the 13th international symposium on Low power electronics and design (ISLPED '08)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129858831","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}

O2C: occasional two-cycle operations for dynamic thermal management in high performance in-order microprocessors O2C:在高性能有序微处理器中用于动态热管理的偶尔两周期操作

This is accomplished by (a) scaling down the supply voltage, (b) isolating and predicting the set of critical paths, (c) ensuring (by design) that they are activated rarely, and (d) getting around occasional delay failures (at reduced voltage during die-overheating) in these paths by two-cycle operations (assuming all standard operations are single-cycle). Two-cycle operation is achieved by stalling the pipeline for extra clock cycles whenever the set of critical paths are activated. The rare two-cycle operation results in a small decrease in IPC (instructions per cycle). Since called O2C maintains the rated clock frequency and does not require pipeline stalling during supply voltage ramp-up/ramp-down, it achieves high throughput in a thermally constrained environment. We applied called O2C to the integer execution units of an in-order superscalar pipeline. Standard full-chip Dynamic Voltage-Frequency Scaling (DVFS) is very effective in bringing down the temperature, however; it is associated with large throughput loss due to pipeline stalling and slow operating frequency during thermal management. We integrated \"O2C with standard DVFS\" (called O2Cα) to demonstrate that it can act as a \"first step\" before full-scale thermal management is required. Our simulations indeed reveal that called O2Cα policy can avoid the requirement of full-scale DVFS during execution of programs.","PeriodicalId":166672,"journal":{"name":"Proceeding of the 13th international symposium on Low power electronics and design (ISLPED '08)","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128513803","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}

We demonstrate that delay variations of subthreshold circuits are well characterized with two parameters - threshold voltage and subthreshold swing parameter.

Hybrid dynamic thermal management based on statistical characteristics of multimedia applications 基于统计特性的多媒体应用的混合动态热管理

{"title":"Hybrid dynamic thermal management based on statistical characteristics of multimedia applications","authors":"Inchoon Yeo, Eun Jung Kim","doi":"10.1145/1393921.1394007","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/1393921.1394007","url":null,"abstract":"Recently multimedia applications become one of the most popular applications in mobile devices such as wireless phones, PDAs, and laptops. However, typical mobile systems are not equipped with cooling components, which eventually causes critical thermal deficiencies. Although many low-power and low-temperature multimedia playback techniques have been proposed, they failed to provide QoS (Quality of Service) while controlling temperature due to the lack of proper understanding of multimedia applications. We propose Hybrid Dynamic Thermal Management (HDTM) which exploits thermal characteristics of both multimedia applications and systems. Specifically, we model application characteristics as the probability distribution of the number of cycles required to decode a frame. We also improve existing system thermal models by considering the effect of work-load. This scheme finds an optimal clock frequency in order to prevent overheating with minimal performance degradation at runtime. The proposed scheme is implemented on Linux in a Pentium-M processor which provides variable clock frequencies. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme, we exploit three major codecs, namely MPEG-4, H.264/AVC and H.264/AVC streaming. Our results show that HDTM lowers the overall temperature by 15°C and the peak temperature by 20°C , while maintaining frame drop ratio under 0.2% compared to previous thermal management schemes such as feedback control DTM, Frame-based DTM and GOP-based DTM.","PeriodicalId":166672,"journal":{"name":"Proceeding of the 13th international symposium on Low power electronics and design (ISLPED '08)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128111625","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}
