Silicon interposer technology or 2.5D stacking is an approach to decrease memory access delay. In the 3D stacking method, the memory stacks are placed on top of the processing chip, and it uses Through Silicon Via vertical links, but in the 2.5D method, the stacked memories are placed on the sides of the processing chip, and data transfer is from the network that lays on the silicon interposer. We examine the interposer network topologies in the 2.5D chip and present Diagonal Mesh with a new routing algorithm for the interposer network. The stacked memories are on two sides of the processing chip, so Diagonal Mesh interconnections can reduce the delay in accessing dynamic memory using diagonal links. Symmetry and short diagonal links are the advantages of the Diagonal Mesh compared to the other topologies. According to the simulation results, the Diagonal Mesh average hop count is lower than Concentrated Mesh and Double Butterfly, and the average packet latency is lower than the compared topologies. Diagonal Mesh improved 19.7 percent in the average hop count and 41.17 percent in the network saturation point compared to Concentrated Mesh.
硅中间层技术或2.5D堆叠是降低存储器访问延迟的一种方法。在3D堆叠方法中,存储器堆栈放置在处理芯片的顶部,并使用Through Silicon Via垂直链接,但在2.5D方法中,堆叠的存储器放置在处理芯片的两侧,数据传输来自铺设在硅中间层上的网络。我们研究了2.5D芯片中的中介网络拓扑结构,并提出了一种新的中介网络路由算法对角网格。堆叠的存储器位于处理芯片的两侧,因此对角网格互连可以减少使用对角链路访问动态存储器的延迟。对称和短对角连接是对角网格相对于其他拓扑的优点。仿真结果表明,对角网的平均跳数低于集中网和双蝴蝶网,平均数据包延迟低于对比拓扑。与集中网格相比,对角网格在平均跳数上提高了19.7%,在网络饱和点上提高了41.17%。

Application Mapping in Network-on-Chip (NoC) design is considered a vital challenge because of its NP-hard nature. Many efforts are made to address the application mapping problem, but none has satisfied all the requirements. For example, Integer Linear Programming (ILP) has achieved the best possible solution but lacks scalability. Advancements in Machine Learning (ML) have added new dimensions in solving the application mapping problem. This paper proposes RAMAN: Reinforcement Learning (RL) inspired algorithm for mapping applications onto mesh NoC. RAMAN is a modified Q-Learning technique inspired by RL, aiming to achieve the minimum communication cost for the application mapping problem. The results of RAMAN demonstrated that RL has enormous potential to solve application mapping problem without much complexity and computational cost. RAMAN has achieved the communication cost within the 6% of the optimal cost determined by ILP. Considering the computational overheads and complexity, the results of RAMAN are encouraging. Future work will improve RAMAN's performance and provide a new aspect to solve the application mapping problem.
片上网络(NoC)设计中的应用映射由于其NP-hard的特性而被认为是一个至关重要的挑战。人们做了很多努力来解决应用程序映射问题,但是没有一个能满足所有的需求。例如,整数线性规划(ILP)实现了最好的解决方案,但缺乏可扩展性。机器学习(ML)的进步为解决应用程序映射问题增加了新的维度。本文提出了基于RAMAN:强化学习(RL)的网格NoC映射算法。RAMAN是受强化学习启发的一种改进的Q-Learning技术,旨在实现应用映射问题的最小通信成本。RAMAN的结果表明,RL在解决应用映射问题方面具有巨大的潜力,而且不需要太多的复杂性和计算成本。RAMAN实现了在ILP确定的最优成本的6%以内的通信成本。考虑到计算开销和复杂性,RAMAN的结果是令人鼓舞的。未来的工作将进一步提高RAMAN的性能,并为解决应用映射问题提供一个新的视角。

The realization of on-chip efficient interconnections is one of the most important challenges in developing new computing architectures based on heterogeneous multichip integration. In these architectures, multicore CPUs, GPUs, and memory are densely integrated and need an effective communication layer to exploit their potentialities. In order to overcome the communication bottleneck of these multichip systems, in this work we propose a new approach based on the use of optical wireless switches. These switches can be integrated with an existing Optical Network on Chip as an alternative to ring-based routing matrices with the aim to increase the overall efficiency of the network. In particular, a device allowing on-chip optical wireless interconnections through transmitting and receiving Optical Phased Arrays (OPAs) is presented. In-plane-radiation of simple taper antennas organized as linear antenna arrays is exploited to form $1times N$ and $Ntimes N$ switching matrices. The OPAs design criteria are discussed in details and three-dimensional Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulation results are used to evaluate the performance in term of transmission loss and crosstalk among the different nodes of a $3 times 3$ wideband switching fabric.

Electromigration has been a major reliability concern for nano-interconnects in CMOS applications. With further CMOS miniaturization, the cross-sectional area of nano-interconnects is further scaled resulting in a significant increase of current densities. It has been shown that $j_{max}$ of copper interconnects degrades abruptly at scaled linewidths, predicting increased susceptibility to electromigration. Nevertheless, there is still a dilemma given that the electromigration metrics are typically obtained from electromigration tests on single isolated interconnects and may not be readily translated into metrics for interconnect networks of CMOS designs, which is key for enabling realistic reliability predictions at system-level. In this paper, we demonstrate a physics-based system-level electromigration modelling platform aiming to address the shortcomings of the standard of practice for electromigration compliance checks during the design phase and enhance the accuracy of lifetime predictions from a system viewpoint. The framework is specifically applied to the case of PDN for a 3 nm technology node.
电迁移一直是CMOS应用中纳米互连的主要可靠性问题。随着CMOS进一步小型化,纳米互连的横截面积进一步缩小,导致电流密度显著增加。研究表明,铜互连的$j_{max}$在一定线宽下突然退化,预示着电迁移的易感性增加。然而,考虑到电迁移指标通常是从单个隔离互连的电迁移测试中获得的,并且可能不容易转化为CMOS设计互连网络的指标,这是实现系统级实际可靠性预测的关键,因此仍然存在一个困境。在本文中,我们展示了一个基于物理的系统级电迁移建模平台,旨在解决设计阶段电迁移合规性检查的实践标准的缺点,并从系统的角度提高寿命预测的准确性。该框架特别适用于3nm技术节点的PDN情况。

As technology nodes evolve, geometric pitch scaling starts to slow down. In order to retain the trend of the Moore's Law, Design Technology Co-Optimization (DTCO) and System Technology Co-Optimization (STCO) are introduced together to continue scaling beyond 5nm using pitch scaling, patterning, and novel 3D cell structures (i.e., Complementary-FET (CFET)). However, numerous DTCO and STCO iterations are needed to continue block-level area scaling with considerations of cost, various standard cell (SDC) heights, SDC architectures, design rules, and back end of line (BEOL) settings. The growing turnaround time (TAT) among standard cell design, design rule optimization, and block-level area evaluation becomes one of the major bottlenecks in DTCO and STCO explorations. In this work, we propose a DTCO and STCO sensitivity prediction method to improve the performance of DTCO and STCO explorations on block-level area using machine learning techniques. We study and extract the key metrics of block-level designs, SDCs, design rules, and BEOLs. We use a machine learning model to predict the sensitivity of minimum valid block-level area when tuning the design rules and BEOLs with various SDC sets (i.e., different cell heights, Conventional FET, CFET, etc.). We firstly demonstrate that the proposed model achieves 4.05 ×10−3 mean absolute error (MAE) for testing sets to predict block-level area sensitivity of various SDC sets, design rules, and BEOL settings. Then, we show that the proposed model successfully captures the block-level area sensitivity of new SDC sets and new BEOL settings across multiple SDC sets and designs with 3.3 ×10-2and 6 ×10−3MAEs, respectively. Lastly, the proposed modeling approach achieves 5.75 ×10−2MAE on average in the robustness experiment on predicting new designs. The proposed framework provides more than 100× speedups compared to conventional DTCO and STCO exploration flows.
随着技术节点的发展,几何音高缩放开始放缓。为了保持摩尔定律的趋势,设计技术协同优化(DTCO)和系统技术协同优化(STCO)被一起引入,使用基音缩放、图像化和新颖的3D单元结构(即互补场效应管(CFET))继续扩展到5nm以上。然而,考虑到成本、各种标准单元(SDC)高度、SDC架构、设计规则和后端线(BEOL)设置,需要进行大量的DTCO和STCO迭代来继续进行块级面积缩放。标准单元设计、设计规则优化和块级面积评估之间不断增长的周转时间(TAT)成为DTCO和STCO探索的主要瓶颈之一。在这项工作中,我们提出了一种基于机器学习技术的DTCO和STCO灵敏度预测方法,以提高DTCO和STCO在块级区域上的探测性能。我们研究并提取了块级设计、SDCs、设计规则和beol的关键指标。我们使用机器学习模型来预测在调整设计规则和不同SDC集(即不同单元高度,常规FET, cfeet等)的beol时最小有效块级面积的灵敏度。我们首先证明,该模型在预测各种SDC集、设计规则和BEOL设置的块级区域灵敏度时,测试集的平均绝对误差(MAE)达到4.05 ×10−3。然后,我们证明了所提出的模型成功地捕获了跨多个SDC集和设计的新SDC集和新BEOL设置的块级区域灵敏度,分别为3.3 ×10-2and 6 ×10−3MAEs。最后,在预测新设计的鲁棒性实验中,所提出的建模方法平均达到5.75 ×10−2MAE。与传统的DTCO和STCO勘探流程相比,所提出的框架提供了100倍以上的加速。

Performance-Aware Interconnect Delay Insertion Against EM Side-Channel Attacks 针对电磁侧信道攻击的性能感知互连延迟插入
Pub Date : 2021-11-01 DOI: 10.1109/SLIP52707.2021.00013
Minmin Jiang, V. Pavlidis
Random Delay Insertion (RDI) has been shown to be an effective countermeasure to side-channel attacks (SCAs) on on-chip power networks. RDI effectively reduces the correlation between the power dissipation and the processed data. However, random delay insertion can degrade circuit performance. Considering the theoretical benefits of delay insertion, this paper proposes a novel methodology that adds delay to interconnect buses to mitigate electromagnetic (EM) SCAs without degrading bus latency. The methodology comprises an efficient delay insertion scheme that hinders electromagnetic attacks, where the delay is inserted into the boundary lines of the bus. As the worst-case bus latency is determined by the lines that drive the maximum cross-coupling capacitance, inserting delay at the boundary lines does not affect the circuit performance as these lines always drive a lower capacitance. The inserted delay improves the security strength of the bus to EM attacks due to the reduction of the correlation between EM emissions and transmitted data, making the methodology effective and directly applicable with negligible overhead. The technique is applied to interposer based off-chip memory buses due to the increasing adoption of 2.5-D integrated systems (although the method is effectively applicable to any interconnect bus). Simulation results show that the technique decreases SNR below 1, which makes EM attacks unsuccessful, and does not increase the (worst-case) bus latency, sustaining the overall circuit performance. Consequently, the proposed method provides a superior EM SCA mitigation method compared to the state-of-the-art. Indeed, theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that the new technique can offer the same level of protection against SCAs with better performance than other hardware RDI countermeasures.
随机延迟插入(RDI)已被证明是一种有效的对抗片上电网侧信道攻击(sca)的方法。RDI有效地降低了功耗与处理数据之间的相关性。然而,随机延迟插入会降低电路的性能。考虑到延迟插入的理论好处,本文提出了一种新的方法,在不降低总线延迟的情况下,在互连总线上增加延迟以减轻电磁(EM) sca。该方法包括一个有效的延迟插入方案,阻止电磁攻击,其中延迟插入到总线的边界线。由于最坏情况下的母线延迟是由驱动最大交叉耦合电容的线路决定的,因此在边界线上插入延迟不会影响电路性能,因为这些线路总是驱动较低的电容。由于减少了电磁发射与传输数据之间的相关性,插入的延迟提高了总线对电磁攻击的安全强度,使该方法有效且直接适用,开销可以忽略不计。由于越来越多地采用2.5-D集成系统,该技术被应用于基于中间层的片外存储总线(尽管该方法有效地适用于任何互连总线)。仿真结果表明,该技术将信噪比降低到1以下,使EM攻击不成功,并且不会增加(最坏情况下)总线延迟,保持整体电路性能。因此,与最先进的方法相比,所提出的方法提供了优越的电磁SCA缓解方法。实际上,理论分析和仿真结果表明,新技术可以提供与其他硬件RDI对策相比具有更好性能的相同级别的sca保护。
{"title":"Performance-Aware Interconnect Delay Insertion Against EM Side-Channel Attacks","authors":"Minmin Jiang, V. Pavlidis","doi":"10.1109/SLIP52707.2021.00013","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/SLIP52707.2021.00013","url":null,"abstract":"Random Delay Insertion (RDI) has been shown to be an effective countermeasure to side-channel attacks (SCAs) on on-chip power networks. RDI effectively reduces the correlation between the power dissipation and the processed data. However, random delay insertion can degrade circuit performance. Considering the theoretical benefits of delay insertion, this paper proposes a novel methodology that adds delay to interconnect buses to mitigate electromagnetic (EM) SCAs without degrading bus latency. The methodology comprises an efficient delay insertion scheme that hinders electromagnetic attacks, where the delay is inserted into the boundary lines of the bus. As the worst-case bus latency is determined by the lines that drive the maximum cross-coupling capacitance, inserting delay at the boundary lines does not affect the circuit performance as these lines always drive a lower capacitance. The inserted delay improves the security strength of the bus to EM attacks due to the reduction of the correlation between EM emissions and transmitted data, making the methodology effective and directly applicable with negligible overhead. The technique is applied to interposer based off-chip memory buses due to the increasing adoption of 2.5-D integrated systems (although the method is effectively applicable to any interconnect bus). Simulation results show that the technique decreases SNR below 1, which makes EM attacks unsuccessful, and does not increase the (worst-case) bus latency, sustaining the overall circuit performance. Consequently, the proposed method provides a superior EM SCA mitigation method compared to the state-of-the-art. Indeed, theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that the new technique can offer the same level of protection against SCAs with better performance than other hardware RDI countermeasures.","PeriodicalId":358944,"journal":{"name":"2021 ACM/IEEE International Workshop on System Level Interconnect Prediction (SLIP)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126870751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
