Dennard Scaling —
~constant power/chip
Gone. Can’t repeatedly double
power/chip
Modest (hidden)
transistor unreliability
Increasing transistor unreliability
can’t be hidden
Focus on computation
over communication
Communication (energy) more
expensive than computation
1-time costs amortized
via mass market
One-time cost much worse &
want specialized platforms
How should architects step up as technology falters?

• Glimpse at DARPA/ISAT Workshop “Advancing
Computer Systems without Technology Progress”

1. Architecture as Infrastructure:
Spanning Sensors to Clouds
• Beyond a chip in a generic computer
• To pillar of 21st century societal infrastructure.
o
o
o
o
Computation in context (sensor, mobile, …, data center)
Systems often large & distributed
Communication issues can dominate computation
Goals beyond performance (battery life, form factor)
• Opportunities (not exhaustive)
o Reliable sensors harvesting (intermittent) energy
o Smart phones to Star Trek’s medical “tricorder”
o Cloud infrastructure suitable for both “Big Data” streams
& low-latency qualify-of-service with stragglers
o Analysis & design tools that scale
20
2. Energy First
• Beyond single-core performance computer
• To (cost-)performance per watt/joule
• Energy across the layers
o Circuit/technology (near-threshold CMOS, 3D stacking)
o Architecture (reducing unnecessary data movement)
o Software (communication-reducing algorithms)
• Parallelism to save energy
o Vast (fined-grained) homogeneous & heterogeneous
o Improved SW stack
o Applications focus (beyond graphic processing units)
• Specialization for performance & energy efficiency
o Abstractions for specialization (reducing 1-time cost)
o Energy-efficient memory hierarchies
o Reconfigurable logic structures
21
3. Technology Impacts on Architecture
• Beyond CMOS, Dram, & Disks of last 3+ decades to
• Using replacement circuit technologies
o Sub/near-threshold CMOS, QWFETs, TFETs, and QCAs
• Non-volatile storage
o Beyond flash memory to STT-RAM, PCRAM, & memristor
• 3D die stacking & interposers
o logic, cache, small main memory
• Photonic interconnects
o Inter- & even intra-chip
• Design automation
o from circuit-design w/ new technologies to
o pre-RTL functional, performance, power, area modeling of
heterogeneous chips & systems

4. Cross-Cutting Issues & Interfaces
• Beyond performance w/ stable interfaces to
• New design goals (for pillar of societal infrastructure)
o
o
o
o
Verifiability (bugs kill)
Reliability (“dependability” computing base?)
Security/Privacy (w/ non-volatile memory?)
Programmability (time to correct-performant solution)
• Better Interfaces
o
o
o
o
High-level information (quality of service, provenance)
Parallelism ((in)dependence, (lack of) side-effects)
Orchestrating communication ((recursive) locality)
Security/Reliability (fine-grain protection)

Executive summary (Added to National Academy Slides)
 Highlights of National Academy Findings
(F1) Computer hardware has transitioned to multicore
(F2) Dennard scaling of CMOS has broken down
(F3) Parallelism and locality must be exploited by software
(F4) Chip power will soon limit multicore scaling
 Eight recommendations from algorithms to education
 We know all of this at some level, BUT:
Are we all acting on this knowledge or hoping for business as usual?
Thinking beyond next paper to where future value will be created?

Surprise 1 of 2
• Can Harvest in the “Fallow” Period!
• 2 decades of Moore’s Law-like perf./energy gains
• Wring out inefficiencies used to harvest Moore’s Law
HW/SW Specialization/Co-design (3-100x)
Reduce SW Bloat (2-1000x)
Approximate Computing (2-500x)
--------------------------------------------------~1000x = 2 decades of Moore’s Law!
26
“Surprise” 2 of 2
• Systems must exploit LOCALITY-AWARE parallelism
• Parallelism Necessary, but not Sufficient
• As communication’s energy costs dominate
• Shouldn’t be a surprise, but many are in denial
• Both surprises hard, requiring “vertical cut” thru SW/HW
