TL;DR: This result emphasizes that changes in design, technology, and architecture are needed to cope with the onslaught of wiring demands and one potential solution is 3-D integration of transistors, which is expected to significantly improve interconnect performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Limits on Silicon Nanoelectronics for Terascale Integration
TL;DR: Analysis of fundamental, material, device, circuit, and system limits reveals that silicon technology has an enormous remaining potential to achieve terascale integration (TSI) of more than 1 trillion transistors per chip.
Journal ArticleDOI
A stochastic wire-length distribution for gigascale integration (GSI). I. Derivation and validation
TL;DR: A rigorous derivation of a complete wire-length distribution for on-chip random logic networks is performed and a methodology to calculate the wire- length distribution for future gigascale integration (GSI) products is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A stochastic wire-length distribution for gigascale integration (GSI). II. Applications to clock frequency, power dissipation, and chip size estimation
TL;DR: A complete wire-length distribution for on-chip random logic networks is used to enhance a critical path model; to derive a preliminary dynamic power dissipation model; and to describe optimal architectures for multilevel wiring networks that provide maximum interconnect density and minimum chip size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interconnect opportunities for gigascale integration
James D. Meindl,Jeffrey A. Davis,Payman Zarkesh-Ha,Chirag S. Patel,Kevin P. Martin,Paul A. Kohl +5 more
TL;DR: Using a heterogeneous version of Rent's rule, a design methodology for the global signal, clock, and power/ground distribution networks for a system-on-a-chip has been derived.
