These load-balancing techniques result in a quite different power, performance and thermal behavior of the processor, specially when low- power techniques like power gating are applied to the individual cores. In this work, a load-balancing technique that provides low overhead in performance and energy with respect to the highest performance case, yet featuring a smooth temperature distribution close to the optimal scenario is presented. An uneven temperature distribution leads to thermal hot spots which affect both the reliability of the processor (by stressing some parts of the die more than others), and the cost of the processor (since the package has to be designed to handle the worst hot spot).","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114427693","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}

Existing solutions imply the use of specialized memories or assume error free environments. This is either unrealistic or impractical in many industrial situations. In this paper, we propose an architecture which implements classic low power encoding but uses industry standard DRAMs. Moreover, the low power encoding is combined with error-protection in order to extend the application to noisy channels or to the presence of soft and hard failures in the memory. Parallelism between the two encoding processes avoids any latency adder. Our experimental results, based on current consumption measurements of DDR2 DRAM components in mass production, show savings up to 31% on the I/O power and 6% on the total memory energy of a single channel memory system of 4 GB at practically no cost.","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"507 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122899354","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}

Lack of accurate evaluation of thermal effect on the IR drop in the power grid may lead to over-design; or worse, underestimates the IR drop due to increased local temperature. This paper presents a method to compute the temperature-dependent IR drop on the power grid extremely fast. We propose a novel thermal model and a mathematical formulation to compute the temperature profiles on the power grid efficiently. Compared to the traditional thermal lumped model, which gives a much larger thermal network than the original power grid (20 times more nodes), our model takes advantage of power grid properties, and reduces the size of the thermal equivalent network dramatically (only 13% of the size of the power grid). Iterative methods [16] are used to efficiently update the IR drops based on the new temperature profile. Experimental results show that without considering temperature impact, the worst IR drop analysis can have error up to 10%.","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126177514","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}

To fully utilize the information provided by the current source models, numerical integration is often applied to solve stage-based transient simulation that calculates delay, slew, or noise bumps. However, this is computationally expensive. In this paper, we present a fast and robust algorithm for delay and signal integrity (SI) calculation using current source models. By applying diagonalization and Sherman-Morrison formula together with a one-step Newton-Raphson method, the transient simulation cost of a stage with a single driver can be reduced from O(kmn3) to O(kn) with a small runtime overhead, where k is the number of time step, m is the average number of Newton-Raphson steps, and n is the size of matrices of the Reduced Order Model(ROM) of the parasitic network. The proposed method works perfectly with the popular implicit integration methods such as the Trapezoidal and Backward Euler method.","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131096761","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}

Without compromising performance, timing slacks can be utilized to optimize interconnect power efficiently. The optimization of total interconnect power is affected not only by the properties of each interconnect as well as the timing constraint, but also by the circuit topology. In this paper, we introduce a novel slack distribution algorithm IPOSA to optimize interconnect power efficiently. A piecewise linear model is proposed to quantify the relationship between interconnect power reduction and timing slack amount, considering the interconnect length and the switching activity. Monte Carlo analysis shows our piecewise model is accurate enough that the average error is 1.7%. Based on the piecewise linearity of the model, we propose an iterative slack distribution algorithm which minimizes total interconnect power with given performance constraint. The experimental results show that our algorithm can achieve 41.7% interconnect power reduction on average.","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130047820","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 propose a new dataflow model called constant rate dataflow with intermediate ports (CRDF-IP) in which a component (or actor) can send and receive data to/from another actor through intermediate port during its execution. Since an actor can call another actor multiple times per execution, dynamic behaviors are easily specified without introducing run-time scheduler. Moreover, top-down design can be achieved by extracting a sub-actor from the top actor. This paper has proved that deadlock detection and buffer size computation can be performed at compile in CRDF-IP model. The proposed model has been implemented in a system level design platform in which H.263 video encoding algorithm is specified.","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116318205","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}
