A reconfigurable self-timed regenerator based global interconnect scheme enables graceful degradation of performance and power in wide range dynamic voltage/frequency scaled systems. A test chip demonstrates up to 40% and 25% better performance …
This article consists of a collection of slides from the author's conference presentation on Swizzle Switch networks for use in many-core systems. Some of the specific topics discussed include: the special features and design of swizzle-switch …
Flexible, stress-engineered spring interconnects are a novel technology potentially enabling room temperature assembly approaches to building highly integrated and multi-chip modules (MCMs). Such interconnects are an essential solder-free technology …
Recent advances in silicon photonics bring significant benefits to "macrochip" grids made of arrayed chips. Such configurations have global interconnects long enough to benefit from the high speed, low energy, and high bandwidth density of optics. In …
