Abstract:Energy becomes the primary concern in nowadays multi-core architecture designs. Moore's law predicts that the exponentially increasing number of cores can be packed into a single chip every two years, however, the increasing power density is the obstacle to continuous performance gains. Recent studies show that heterogeneous multi-core is a competitive promising solution to optimize performance per watt. In this paper, different types of heterogeneous architecture are discussed. For each type, current challeng… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
