Abstract

Information technology is now an indispensable pillar of a modern day society. CMOS technologies, which lay the foundation for all digital platforms, however, are experiencing a major inflection point due to a slowdown in voltage scaling. The net result is that power is emerging as the key design constraint for all platforms from embedded systems to datacenters. This tutorial presents emerging design paradigms from embedded multicore SoCs to server processors for scale-out datacenters based on mobile cores.
