Abstract
The anticipated end of Moore’s law, coupled with the breakdown of Dennard scaling, compelled everyone to conceive forthcoming computing systems once transistors reach their limits. Three leading approaches to circumvent this situation are the chiplet paradigm, domain customisation and quantum computing. However, architectural and technological innovations have shifted the fundamental bottleneck from computation to communication. Hence, on-chip and on-package communication play a pivotal role in determining the performance, energy efficiency and scalability of general-purpose, domain-specific and quantum computing systems. This article reviews the recent advances in chip and package-scale interconnects due to the change in architecture, application and technology. The primary objective of this article is to present the current status, key challenges, and impact-worthy opportunities in this research area from the perspective of hardware architectures. The secondary objective of this article is to serve as a tutorial providing an overview of academic and industrial explorations in chip and package-scale communication infrastructure design for general-purpose, domain-specific and quantum computing systems.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Journal on Emerging and Selected Topics in Circuits and Systems is published quarterly and solicits, with particular emphasis on emerging areas, special issues on topics that cover the entire scope of the IEEE Circuits and Systems (CAS) Society, namely the theory, analysis, design, tools, and implementation of circuits and systems, spanning their theoretical foundations, applications, and architectures for signal and information processing.
