The chip temperature is a®ected by both the power consumption of processor components and the chip layout. Therefore, for thermal-aware design it is crucial to consider the thermal e®ects of di®erent °oorplans during micro-architectural design space exploration. In this thesis, I propose a thermal-aware architectural °oorplanning framework. With the aid of this framework, an architect can explore both physical and architectural design spaces simultaneously to ‾nd an architecture and the corresponding chip layout that optimizes performance under a thermal limitation.Abstract i 1 Introduction 1 2 Related Works 4 2.1 Thermal Modelling . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 2.2 Thermal-Driven Floorplanning/Placement . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 2.3 Dynamic Thermal Management . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 2.4 Micro-Architectural Floorplanning with Joint Exploration of Architectural and Physical Spaces . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8 3 Overview of Thermal-Aware Micro-Architectural Floorplanning Frame- work 9 4 Design of the Micro-Architectural Floorplanner 12 4.1 Review of the B¤-tree Representation and Simulated Annealing . . . . . . . . 12 4.2 Floorplanning Methodology . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16 4.3 Empty Space Recognition . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18 5 Experimental Results 24 6 Conclusion 305164494 bytesapplication/pdfen-US溫度效能計算機結構ThermalPerformanceArchitecture結合計算機結構暨實體設計之溫度感知輔助設計Joint Exploration of Architectural and Physical Design Spaces with Thermal Considerationthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/54036/1/ntu-94-R92922089-1.pdf
