It is becoming increasingly difficult to scale as we move into the 32 nm and beyond process nodes due both to physics and economics. A lower cost alternative method of scaling is becoming more available in the form of vertical chip integration. Many manufacturers now offer a range of package level integration solutions from traditional planar approaches to commonly used die stacking and recently introduced die level 3-D integration. With the introduction of 3-D integration, designers and system integrators can now consider physical design optimizations which include functional stacking, through silicon interconnect to reduce power and signal latency, and optimized manufacturing cost. To enable design teams to take advantage of the benefits available with this technology, new capabilities must be developed to support the design and implementation process. This support must start at the architectural level where issues of robustness, reliability, testability and power must be thoroughly studied. Support must continue through to manufacturing, packaging, and final test development. In this presentation we will explore how existing design technology and methods can be practically evolved to support the powerful scaling capabilities inherent in 3-D integration technology. Specifically we will cover Architectural design space exploration, functional partitioning, physical planning, and timing/SI/thermal/yield analysis for 3-D structures.","PeriodicalId":412696,"journal":{"name":"2008 45th ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123200703","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 paper presents a novel compositional algorithm to verify sequential equivalence of large designs that are not only retimed but also optimized sequentially and combinationally. With a new notion of conditional equivalence in the presence of retiming, the proposed compositional algorithm performs hierarchical verification by checking whether each sub-block is conditionally equivalent, then checking whether the conditions are justified on their parent block by temporal equivalence. This is the first compositional algorithm handling both retiming and sequential optimizations hierarchically. The proposed approach is completely automatic and orthogonal to any existing sequential equivalence checker. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can handle large industrial designs that cannot be verified by the existing methods on sequential equivalence checking.","PeriodicalId":412696,"journal":{"name":"2008 45th ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference","volume":"260 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131571346","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}

Koushanfar","doi":"10.1145/1391469.1391606","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/1391469.1391606","url":null,"abstract":"We propose the first method for designing N-variant sequential circuits. The flexibility provided by the N-variants enables a number of important tasks, including IP protection, IP metering, security, design optimization, self-adaptation and fault-tolerance. The method is based on extending the finite state machine (FSM) of the design to include multiple variants of the same design specification. The state transitions are managed by added signals that may come from various triggers depending on the target application. We devise an algorithm for implementing the N-variant IC design. We discuss the necessary manipulations of the added signals that would facilitate the various tasks. The key advantage to integrating the heterogeneity in the functional specification of the design is that we can configure the variants during or post-manufacturing, but removal, extraction or deletion of the variants is not viable. Experimental results on benchmark circuits demonstrate that the method can be automatically and efficiently implemented. Because of its lightweight, N-variant design is particularly well-suited for securing embedded systems. As a proof-of-concept, we implement the N-variant method for content protection in portable media players, e.g., iPod. We discuss how the N-variant design methodology readily enables new digital rights management methods.","PeriodicalId":412696,"journal":{"name":"2008 45th ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131577579","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 ever-shrinking device sizes contribute further to this problem. In this paper, we present a reliability aware power management algorithm that aims at reducing energy consumption while preserving the overall system reliability. The idea behind the proposed scheme is to utilize the dynamic slack to scale down processes while ensuring that the overall system reliability does not reduce drastically. The proposed algorithm employs a proportional feedback controller to keep track of the overall miss ratio of a system of tasks and provide additional level of fault-tolerance based on demand. It was tested with both real-world and synthetic task sets and simulation results have been presented. Both fixed and dynamic priority scheduling policies have been considered for demonstration of results.","PeriodicalId":412696,"journal":{"name":"2008 45th ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130356042","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 is necessary for both the final design, and during architecture exploration, when many different logic and routing architectures are considered. For such explorations, it is not feasible to spend significant amounts of time on transistor-level design. This paper presents an automated transistor sizing tool for FPGA architecture exploration that uses a two-phased approach - a coarse rapid phase with simple modeling followed by refinement with much more accurate models. The output of the system is a design optimized towards a specific area-delay criterion. We compare the quality of our results to prior manual and partially automated approaches. Also, our tool has been used to produce hundreds of candidate architectures which we are releasing to support future high quality explorations.","PeriodicalId":412696,"journal":{"name":"2008 45th ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129524953","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 results obtained with this method strongly depend on the mapping of scan flip-flops into scan chains, which determines how many chains can be deactivated per pattern. In this paper, a new method to cluster flip-flops into scan chains is presented, which minimizes the power consumption during test. It is not dependent on a test set and can improve the performance of any test power reduction technique consequently. The approach does not specify any ordering inside the chains and fits seamlessly to any standard tool for scan chain integration. The application of known test power reduction techniques to the optimized scan chain configurations shows significant improvements for large industrial circuits.","PeriodicalId":412696,"journal":{"name":"2008 45th ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130942779","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}
