Temperature-aware microarchitecture
Kevin Skadron,Mircea R. Stan,Wei Huang,Sivakumar Velusamy,Karthik Sankaranarayanan,David Tarjan +5 more
TL;DR: HotSpot is described, an accurate yet fast model based on an equivalent circuit of thermal resistances and capacitances that correspond to microarchitecture blocks and essential aspects of the thermal package that shows that power metrics are poor predictors of temperature, and that sensor imprecision has a substantial impact on the performance of DTM.
Journal ArticleDOI
HotSpot: a compact thermal modeling methodology for early-stage VLSI design
TL;DR: The HotSpot compact thermal modeling approach is especially well suited for preregister transfer level (RTL) and presynthesis thermal analysis and is able to provide detailed static and transient temperature information across the die and the package, as it is also computationally efficient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature-aware microarchitecture: Modeling and implementation
Kevin Skadron,Mircea R. Stan,Karthik Sankaranarayanan,Wei Huang,Sivakumar Velusamy,David Tarjan +5 more
TL;DR: HotSpot is described, an accurate yet fast and practical model based on an equivalent circuit of thermal resistances and capacitances that correspond to microarchitecture blocks and essential aspects of the thermal package that shows that power metrics are poor predictors of temperature, that sensor imprecision has a substantial impact on the performance of DTM, and that the inclusion of lateral resistances for thermal diffusion is important for accuracy.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Compact thermal modeling for temperature-aware design
TL;DR: Results from the thermal model show that a temperature-aware design approach can provide more accurate estimations, and therefore better decisions and faster design convergence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature-aware computer systems: Opportunities and challenges
Kevin Skadron,Mircea R. Stan,Wei Huang,Sivakumar Velusamy,Karthik Sankaranarayanan,David Tarjan +5 more
TL;DR: The authors define the role of architecture techniques and describe hotspot, an accurate yet fast thermal model suitable for computer architecture research.
