SPARTA: A Divide and Conquer Approach to Address Translation for Accelerators

Babak Falsafi, Javier Picorel Obando, Abhishek Bhattacharjee

Virtual memory (VM) is critical to the usability and programmability of hardware accelerators. Unfortunately, implementing accelerator VM efficiently is challenging because the area and power constraints make it difficult to employ the large multi-level TL ...

Stretch: Balancing QoS and Throughput for Colocated Server Workloads on SMT Cores

Boris Robert Grot, Siddharth Gupta

In a drive to maximize resource utilization, today's datacenters are moving to colocation of latency-sensitive and batch workloads on the same server. State-of-the-art deployments, such as those at Google, colocate such diverse workloads even on a single S ...

Design of approximate and precision-scalable circuits for embedded multimedia and neural-network processing

Vincent Frédéric Camus

Density, speed and energy efficiency of integrated circuits have been increasing exponentially for the last four decades following Moore's law. However, power and reliability pose several challenges to the future of technology scaling. Approximate computin ...

Easy and Accurate Hardware-based Program Performance Monitoring

Andrzej Pawel Nowak

The performance monitoring of computer systems is a complex affair, made even more challenging by the increasing gap between hardware and software. Methods that collect and feed data to performance analysis can usually be classified into one of two groups. ...

DynOR: A 32-bit Microprocessor in 28 nm FD-SOI with Cycle-By-Cycle Dynamic Clock Adjustment

Andreas Peter Burg, Adam Shmuel Teman, Thomas Christoph Müller, Andrea Bonetti, Jeremy Hugues-Felix Constantin, Lorenz Flavio Schmid

This paper presents DynOR, a 32-bit 6-stage OpenRISC microprocessor with dynamic clock adjustment. To alleviate the issue of unused dynamic timing margins, the clock period of the processor is adjusted on a cycle-by-cycle level, based on the instruction ty ...

How to Stop Under-Utilization and Love Multicores

Anastasia Ailamaki, Pinar Tözün, Danica Porobic, Iraklis Psaroudakis, Erietta Liarou

Hardware trends oblige software to overcome three major challenges against systems scalability: (1) taking advantage of the implicit/vertical parallelism within a core that is enabled through the aggressive micro-architectural features, (2) exploiting the ...

3D-LIN: A Configurable Low-Latency Interconnect for Multi-Core Clusters with 3D Stacked L1 Memory

Giovanni De Micheli, Yusuf Leblebici, Luca Benini, Giulia Beanato

Shared L1 memories are of interest for tightly- coupled processor clusters in programmable accelerators as they provide a convenient shared memory abstraction while avoiding cache coherence overheads. The performance of a shared-L1 memory critically depend ...

Why Nothing Matters: The Impact of Zeroing

Jennifer Bedke Sartor, Xi Yang

Memory safety defends against inadvertent and malicious misuse of memory that may compromise program correctness and security. A critical element of memory safety is zero initialization. The direct cost of zero initialization is surprisingly high: up to 12 ...

Reactive NUCA: Near-Optimal Block Placement and Replication in Distributed Caches

Anastasia Ailamaki, Babak Falsafi, Michael Ferdman

Increases in on-chip communication delay and the large working sets of server and scientific workloads complicate the design of the on-chip last- level cache for multicore processors. The large working sets favor a shared cache design that maximizes the ag ...
