Compute energy can be reduced by employing near threshold voltage operation. However, data movement energy will become prohibitive. Severe tapering of interconnect bandwidth brings power consumption within limit, but potentially hindering the system performance.","PeriodicalId":436079,"journal":{"name":"2013 Optical Interconnects Conference","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127370572","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}
