FPGA-SPICE: A Simulation-based Power Estimation Framework for FPGAs
Giovanni De Micheli, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Xifan Tang
Mainstream Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) power estimation tools are based on probabilistic activity estimation and analytical power models. The power consumption of the programmable resources of FPGAs is highly sensitive to their configurations. Due ...
2015Parametric scripting for early design performance simulation
This paper discusses the advantages of using a coding interface both to describe form and run performance simulations in the context of architectural design. It outlines the relevance of combining recent interest in the design community for parametric scri ...

Giovanni De Micheli, Davide Sacchetto, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Luca Gaetano Amarù, Shashi Kanth Bobba, Michele De Marchi
Nanosystems are large-scale integrated systems exploiting nanoelectronic devices. In this work, we consider double independent gate, vertically-stacked nanowire FETs with gate-all-around structures and typical diameter of 20-nm. These devices, which we hav ...
Royal Soc2014Low Power 3D Serial TSV Link for High Bandwidth Cross-Chip Communication
Giovanni De Micheli, Yusuf Leblebici, Alessandro Cevrero, Giulia Beanato
3D-ICs based on TSV technology provide high bandwidth inter-chip connections. The drawback is that most of the existing TSVs consume a large amount of silicon real estate. We present circuit-level design and analysis of area efficient, low power, high-data ...

2014Limits to high-speed simulations of spiking neural networks using general-purpose computers
Wulfram Gerstner, Friedemann Zenke
To understand how the central nervous system performs computations using recurrent neuronal circuitry, simulations have become an indispensable tool for theoretical neuroscience. To study neuronal circuits and their ability to self-organize, increasing att ...
Frontiers Research Foundation2014A simulation-optimization approach to deploy Internet services in large-scale systems with user-provided resources
Cloud computing systems can benefit from the use of personal and non-dedicated computers, which are currently employed in volunteer computing systems. Being non-dedicated, these resources show random behavior regarding the times they are online (available) ...
Sage Publications Ltd2014OCTOPUS: Efficient Query Execution on Dynamic Mesh Datasets
Anastasia Ailamaki, Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Thomas Heinis, Farhan Tauheed
Scientists in many disciplines use spatial mesh models to study physical phenomena. Simulating natural phenomena by changing meshes over time helps to understand and predict future behavior of the phenomena. The higher the precision of the mesh models, the ...
2014Tunnel FET with non-uniform gate capacitance for improved device and circuit level performance
Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Didier Bouvet, Luca De Michielis, Cem Alper, Livio Lattanzio, Nilay Dagtekin
We report the significant improvement obtained by a non-uniform gate capacitance made by appropriate combination of high-k and low-k regions over the tunneling and the channel regions of a heterostucture TFET (called HKLKFFET). In addition to significantly ...
Elsevier2013Efficient Arithmetic Logic Gates Using Double-Gate Silicon Nanowire FETs, invited paper
Giovanni De Micheli, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Luca Gaetano Amarù
Silicon NanoWire (SiNW) based Field Effect Tran- sistors (FETs) are promising candidates to extend Moore’s law in the coming years. Recently, Double-Gate (DG) SiNWFETs have been demonstrated to allow on-line configurability of n -type and p -type device po ...
