In this paper, we explore two BNNs: hybrid BNN (HBNN) and XNOR-BNN, where the weights are binarized to +1/−1 while the neuron activations are binarized to 1/0 and +1/−1, respectively. Two SRAM bit cell designs are proposed, namely, 6T SRAM for HBNN and customized 8T SRAM for XNOR-BNN. In our design, the high-precision multiply-and-accumulate (MAC) is replaced by bitwise multiplication for HBNN or XNOR for XNOR-BNN plus bit-counting operations. To parallelize the weighted sum operation, we activate multiple word lines in the SRAM array simultaneously and digitize the analog voltage developed along the bit line by a multi-level sense amplifier (MLSA). In order to partition the large matrices in DNNs, we investigate the impact of sensing bit-levels of MLSA on the accuracy degradation for different sub-array sizes and propose using the nonlinear quantization technique to mitigate the accuracy degradation. With 64 × 64 sub-array size and 3-bit MLSA, HBNN and XNOR-BNN architectures can minimize the accuracy degradation to 2.37% and 0.88%, respectively, for an inspired VGG-16 network on the CIFAR-10 dataset. Design space exploration of SRAM based synaptic architectures with the conventional row-by-row access scheme and our proposed parallel access scheme are also performed, showing significant benefits in the area, latency and energy-efficiency. Finally, we have successfully taped-out and validated the proposed HBNN and XNOR-BNN designs in TSMC 65 nm process with measured silicon data, achieving energy-efficiency >100 TOPS/W for HBNN and >50 TOPS/W for XNOR-BNN.","PeriodicalId":6491,"journal":{"name":"2018 55th ACM/ESDA/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC)","volume":"96 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75929362","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}

For measurement-based timing analysis, the most common analysis method, we provide a solution to achieve cache representativeness and full path coverage: we create a modified program for analysis purposes where cache impact is upper-bounded across any path, and derive the minimum number of runs required to capture in the test campaign cache layouts resulting in high execution times.","PeriodicalId":6491,"journal":{"name":"2018 55th ACM/ESDA/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC)","volume":"45 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77788426","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 access one cache block, an entire row needs to be sensed and amplified, data restored into the bitcells and the bitlines precharged, incurring high latency. Isolating the bitlines and sense amplifiers after activation enables reads and precharges to happen in parallel. However, there are challenges in achieving this isolation. We tackle these challenges and propose an effective scheme, simultaneous read and precharge (SRP), to isolate the sense amplifiers and bitlines and serve reads and precharges in parallel. Our detailed architecture and circuit simulations demonstrate that our simultaneous read and precharge (SRP) mechanism is able to achieve an 8.6% performance benefit over baseline, while reducing sense amplifier idle power by 30%, as compared to prior work, over a wide range of workloads.","PeriodicalId":6491,"journal":{"name":"2018 55th ACM/ESDA/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC)","volume":"46 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81554502","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}

First, the need for (expensive) humans must be removed wherever possible. Humans are skilled at predicting downstream flow failures, evaluating key early decisions such as RTL floorplanning, and deciding tool/flow options to apply to a given design. Achieving human-quality prediction, evaluation and decision-making will require new machine learning-centric models of both tools and designs. Second, to reduce design schedule, focus must return to the long-held dream of single-pass design. Future design tools and flows that never require iteration (i.e., that never fail, but without undue conservatism) demand new paradigms and core algorithms for parallel, cloud-based design automation. Third, learning-based models of tools and flows must continually improve with additional design experiences. Therefore, the EDA and design ecosystem must develop new infrastructure for ML model development and sharing.","PeriodicalId":6491,"journal":{"name":"2018 55th ACM/ESDA/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC)","volume":"25 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81617892","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 develop an elegant yet effective technique that synthesizes memory-optimal architecture from high level software code in order to maximize application-specific data parallelism. Our basic idea is to exploit graph structures embedded in data access pattern and computation structure in order to perform the memory banking that maximizes parallel memory accesses while conserving both hardware and energy consumption. Specifically, we priority color a weighted conflict graph generated from folding the fundamental conflict graph to maximize memory conflict reduction. Most interestingly, our graph-based methodology enables a straightforward tradeoff between the number of memory banks and minimizing memory conflicts.We empirically test our methodology with Vivado HLx 2015.4 on a standard Kintex-7 device for six benchmark computing kernels by measuring conflict reduction. In particular, our approach only require 9.56% LUT, 3.2% FF, 2.5% BRAM, and 11.33% DSP of the total available hardware resource to obtain a mapping function that achieves a 90% conflict reduction on a modified forward Gaussian elimination Kernel with 4 simultaneous memory accesses.","PeriodicalId":6491,"journal":{"name":"2018 55th ACM/ESDA/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC)","volume":"82 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85598870","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}

Unfortunately, these applications do not scale effortlessly with the number of cores because of synchronization operations that take away valuable computational time and restrict the parallelization gains.

We address this issue and introduce ”Subutai”, a hardware/software (HW/SW) architecture designed to distribute essential synchronization mechanisms over the Network-on-Chip (NoC). It includes Network Interfaces (NIs), drivers and a custom library of a NoC-based MPSoC architecture that speeds up the essential synchronization primitives of any legacy parallel application. Besides, we provide a fast simulation tool for parallel applications and a HW architecture of the NI.
