Our control mechanism differs from the conventional DVFS methods, which considers not only the CPI behaviors but also the cache utilizations. To measure cache utilization, a novel metric is proposed. The experimental results show that our proposed method achieves thousand times less bit-error occurrences compared to the conventional DVFS methods under the ultra-low voltage operation. Moreover, the results show that our proposed method surprisingly not only incurs no performance and energy overheads but also achieves on an average 5.1% performance improvement and 5% energy reduction compared to the conventional DVFS methods.","PeriodicalId":205976,"journal":{"name":"Design, Automation and Test in Europe","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114317512","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}

This approach is referred to as inexact or approximate computing. Given that a significant portion of the energy in a modern general purpose processor is spent on moving data to and from storage, and that increasingly data movement contributes significantly to activity during the execution of applications, it is important to be able to develop techniques and methodologies for inexact computing in this context. To accomplish this to its fullest level, it is important to start with algorithmic specifications and alter their intrinsic design to take advantage of inexactness. This calls for a new approach to inexact memory aware algorithm design (IMAD) or co-design. In this paper, we provide the theoretical foundations which include novel models as well as technical results in the form of upper and lower bounds for IMAD in the context of universally understood and canonical problems: variations of sorting, and string matching. Surprisingly, IMAD allowed us to design entirely error-free algorithms while achieving energy gain factors of 1.5 and 5 in the context of sorting and string matching when compared to their traditional (textbook) algorithms. IMAD is also amenable to theoretical analysis and we present several asymptotic bounds on energy gains.","PeriodicalId":205976,"journal":{"name":"Design, Automation and Test in Europe","volume":"169 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122138186","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}

Analog and mixed-signal electronics is more and more important and yet pervasive. This is due both to the increasing systems integration, by nature leading to heterogeneity, and to the complex, digital computing functions being complemented by scores of on-chip analog functions, interfacing/interacting with people, environment, and other systems. Specialty silicon foundries are now stable members of top ten revenue rankings. This technology trend demands for more design automation in both implementation and verification domains. Lossless interfaces between digital and analog design environments, multi-technology support, mixed-signal simulation engines - but also debugging aids - are no longer a nice to have. According to IBS [1], the cost of implementing and verifying the mixed-signal functions is generally over 50% of the design costs even though the mixed-signal transistors can be as low as 3% of the total!

They can be very rapidly switched between the amorphous and the crystalline state, indicative for peculiar crystallization behaviour. Phase change materials are already employed in rewriteable optical data storage, where the pronounced difference of optical properties between the amorphous and crystalline state is used. This unconventional class of materials is also the basis of a storage concept to replace flash memory. This talk will discuss the unique material properties which characterize phase change materials. In particular, it will be shown that the crystalline state of phase change materials is characterized by the occurrence of resonant bonding, a particular flavour of covalent bonding. This insight is employed to predict systematic property trends and to develop non-volatile memories with DRAM-like switching speeds potentially paving the road towards a universal memory. Phase change materials do not only provide exciting opportunities for applications including ‘greener’ storage devices, but also form a unique quantum state of matter as will be demonstrated by transport measurements. In this talk, potential limits of phase change memories in terms of switching speed, scalability and power consumption will be discussed.","PeriodicalId":205976,"journal":{"name":"Design, Automation and Test in Europe","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122222772","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}

On the other hand, significant breakthroughs have been achieved in memory technologies recently [1-4, 6]. As such, the fascinating idea of memcomputing (i.e., use memory for computation purposes) has drawn wide attention from both academia and industry as an effective remedy. Compared with conventional logic computing, memory array provides large set of parallel resources with high bandwidth, which can be configured to perform in-situ computing and information processing, leading to drastic reduction in processor-memory traffic. It will not only make computations more power-and speed-efficient, but also smarter. In addition, it exploits the advances in memory technologies (e.g., [8, 9]) and integration approaches (e.g. 3D integration [11-17]) to achieve better technology scalability.
