Architectural techniques to extend multi-core performance scaling
<p>Multi-cores have successfully delivered performance improvements over the past decade; however, they now face problems on two fronts: power and off-chip memory bandwidth. Dennard's scaling is effectively coming to an end which has lead to a gradual increase in chip power dissipation. In …

Development of inversion-mode and junctionless Indium-Gallium-Arsenide MOSFETs
… impact of forming gas annealing (FGA) on device performance. Following FGA, the devices exhibited a subthreshold swing (SS) of 150mV/dec., an ION/IOFF of 104 and the transconductance, drive current and peak effective mobility increased by 29%, 25% and 15%, respectively. An alternative technique, …

Active management of Cache resources
… the memory bottleneck. As the focus shifts from scaling processor frequency to scaling the number of cores, performance growth demands increasing die area. Scaling the number of cores also places a concurrent area demand in the form of larger caches. While on-chip caches occupy 50-60% of area and …

Improving Per-Thread Performance on CMPs through Timing Speculation
The future of performance scaling lies in massively parallel workloads, but less-parallel applications will remain important. Unfortunately, future process technologies and core microarchitectures no longer promise major per-thread performance improvements, so microarchitects must find new ways to …
