چکیده
Ability to stack separate chips in a single package enables three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs). Heterogeneous 3D ICs provide even better opportunities to reduce the power and increase the performance per unit area. An important issue in designing a heterogeneous 3D IC is reliability. To achieve this, one needs to select the data mapping and processor layout carefully. In this paper, we try to perform this mapping and processor layout effectively. Specifically, on a heterogeneous 3D CMP, we explore how applications can be mapped onto 3D ICs to maximize reliability. Our preliminary experimental evaluation indicates that the proposed technique generates promising results in both reliability and performance.

متن کاملReliability and Performance Evaluation of Fault-aware Routing Methods for Network-on-Chip Architectures (RESEARCH NOTE)
Nowadays, faults and failures are increasing especially in complex systems such as Network-on-Chip (NoC) based Systems-on-a-Chip due to the increasing susceptibility and decreasing feature sizes. On the other hand, fault-tolerant routing algorithms have an evident effect on tolerating permanent faults and improving the reliability of a Network-on-Chip based system. This paper presents reliabili...

متن کامل3D Network-on-Chip with on-chip DRAM: an empirical analysis for future Chip Multiprocessor
With the increasing number of on-chip components and the critical requirement for processing power, Chip Multiprocessor (CMP) has gained wide acceptance in both academia and industry during the last decade. However, the conventional bus-based onchip communication schemes suffer from very high communication delay and low scalability in large scale systems. Network-on-Chip (NoC) has been proposed...
متن کاملExploration of Temperature-Aware Placement Approaches in 2D and 3D Stacked Systems
Technology scaling has brought about dramatic rises in the on-chip power density of modern microprocessors. This has led to greater scrutiny and awareness of thermal management techniques which allows to uphold the thermal integrity of the chip. Higher temperatures or uneven distribution of temperatures result in timing uncertainties which induces performance and reliability concerns for the sy...
