With the number of on-chip processor cores rising to the hundreds, the problem of resource allocation cannot be addressed with traditional methods employed by off-chip multiprocessor architectures. We propose the use of system-level bidding-based algorithms as an efficient and real-time on-chip mechanism for resource allocation in manycore architectures. We simulate and evaluate the proposed bidding-based algorithms in a hierarchical, on-chip network connected manycore platform. Experimental results indicate performance improvement between 15-25%, when compared to an on-chip round robin allocation, while achieving a balanced workload distribution. The obtained results encourage further investigation of the applicability of such system-level algorithms for addressing additional important problems in manycore architectures.","PeriodicalId":289357,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Computer Society Annual Symposium on VLSI","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127090943","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}

Our contributions include: (i) an algorithm for optimal placement of the gates or cells to minimize the possible occurrence of hot spots, (ii) results of sensitivity analysis of thermal characteristic of a layout with respect to the power densities of the modules in the layout, and identifying three classes of modules, and (iii) an algorithm for optimal placement of modules, with minimum possible occurrence of hot spots, and reasonable estimated interconnect lengths.

However, the clock skew constrains the improvement of clock frequencies and affects the reliability of systems. One skew reduction technique is the use of clock deskew circuits. They can be classified into two methods: delay-locked loop (DLL) deskewing and synchronous mirror delay (SMD) deskewing. The DLL deskewing achieves a fine accuracy, but suffers from slow locking. Reversely, the adjustment of the SMD deskewing is fast, but suffers from a poor accuracy. In this paper, a low-power full-digital hybrid clock deskew circuit is presented. It uses a SMD as coarse delay line and a digital-DLL as a fine delay line. The SPICE simulation shows that the proposed clock deskew circuit achieves fine accuracy , fast locking, and low power.","PeriodicalId":289357,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Computer Society Annual Symposium on VLSI","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121598135","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}

The main steps of this divider design including logic synthesis, placement and routing are introduced. By back-annotating the back-end information to front-end design, the custom wire-load model is created for optimizing the design flow under deep submicron technology. This PFD has been fabricated using ARM TSMC 0.18 mum CMOS standard cell library with an area of 675 mumtimes475 mum and the power consumption is about 2 mW under 1.8 V power supply.

There are various ways to increase the robustness of logic designs, but for many applications, the relations between the reliability of the complete system and the components are unknown, preventing justified design rulings. Previous work has analyzed the reliability of a full adder unit, establishing the expected failure rate via a decomposition of probabilistic transfer matrices of primitive gate level components. This paper extends the probabilistic analysis into a complete multi-bit ripple carry adder (RCA) unit, implemented on quantum-dot cellular automata nanotechnology. We show that the reliability of a RCA depends linearly on the failure rates of the macro level components (full adders and wire blocks), but the contributions are heavily weighted by the operand word length. Moreover, the reliability of the passive wiring grows to dominate the total reliability, while the full adders have smaller effect. This is actually very beneficial, since the wire blocks of a RCA can be easily hardened against defects; with reliable wiring, a large adder unit with 99% reliability level requires only relatively low 99.98% reliability from the full adder component.","PeriodicalId":289357,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Computer Society Annual Symposium on VLSI","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122132696","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}

Temperature is another factor that exponentially increases the leakage current. In this paper, we show the effect of temperature on the optimal (minimum-energy-consuming) cache configuration for low energy embedded systems. Our results show that for a given application and technology, the optimal cache size moves toward smaller caches at higher temperatures, due to the larger leakage. Our results show that using a Temperature-Aware Configurable Cache (TACC), up to 61% energy can be saved for instruction cache and 77% for data cache compared to a configurable cache that has been configured for only the corner case temperature (100degC). The TACC also enhances the performance by up to 28% and 17% for the instruction and data cache, respectively.","PeriodicalId":289357,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Computer Society Annual Symposium on VLSI","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117168102","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}

Here an analysis of ground bounce due to power mode transition in power gating structures is presented. An innovative power gating approach is proposed, which in addition to targeting maximum reduction of major leakage currents will provide a way to control ground bounce during power mode transition. The proposed power gating technique will have an additional intermediate HOLD mode along with conventional CUTOFF and RUN modes. Its stepwise turning on feature will provide higher reduction of the magnitude of peak current and voltage glitches in the power distribution network as well as the minimum time required to stabilize power and ground as compared to other similar techniques.","PeriodicalId":289357,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Computer Society Annual Symposium on VLSI","volume":"516 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123083909","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}
