Our convex model optimizes numbers and placement of SRAM and STT-RAM memories on the memory layer, and maps applications/threads on cores in the core layer effectively. The detailed proposed model satisfies the power constraint which is the main challenge of dark-silicon era. Experimental results show that the proposed architecture considerably improves the energy-delay product (EDP) and performance of the 3D eCMP compared to the Baseline memory design. © 2015 IEEE.EnglishConvex-optimizationEmbedded chip-multiprocessor (eCMP)Hybrid memory architectureNon-volatile memory (NVM)Adaptive systemsConvex optimizationData storage equipmentDesignDigital storageMultiprocessing systemsOptimizationProduct designProgrammable logic controllersRandom access storageStatic random access storageConvex modelingEmbedded chipsEnergy delay productMemory designMemory layersNon-volatile memoryPower constraintsProposed architecturesMemory architectureA high-performance hybrid memory architecture for embedded CMPs using a convex optimization modelConference Paper10.1109/ISOCC.2015.7401747
