Balancing Performance Against Cost and Sustainability in Multi-Chip-Module GPUs
MCM-GPUs scale performance by integrating multiple chiplets within the same package. How to partition the aggregate compute resources across chiplets poses a fundamental trade-off in performance versus cost and sustainability. We propose the
Performance Per Wafer (PPW)
metric to explore this trade-off and we find that while performance is maximized with few large chiplets, and while cost and environmental footprint is minimized with many small chiplets, the optimum balance is achieved with a moderate number of medium-sized chiplets. The optimum number of chiplets depends on the workload and increases with increased inter-chiplet bandwidth.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Computer Architecture Letters is a rigorously peer-reviewed forum for publishing early, high-impact results in the areas of uni- and multiprocessor computer systems, computer architecture, microarchitecture, workload characterization, performance evaluation and simulation techniques, and power-aware computing. Submissions are welcomed on any topic in computer architecture, especially but not limited to: microprocessor and multiprocessor systems, microarchitecture and ILP processors, workload characterization, performance evaluation and simulation techniques, compiler-hardware and operating system-hardware interactions, interconnect architectures, memory and cache systems, power and thermal issues at the architecture level, I/O architectures and techniques, independent validation of previously published results, analysis of unsuccessful techniques, domain-specific processor architectures (e.g., embedded, graphics, network, etc.), real-time and high-availability architectures, reconfigurable systems.
