Thermally-Aware Design provides an overview of analysis and optimization techniques for thermally-aware design. After beginning with a motivation for the problem and trends seen in the semiconductor industry, the survey presents a description of techniques for on-chip thermal analysis. Next, the effects of elevated temperatures on on-chip performance metrics are analyzed. Finally, a set of thermal optimization techniques, for controlling on-chip temperatures and limiting the level to which they degrade circuit performance, are described.
This is an invaluable reference for researchers and chip designers interested in pushing the state of the art in thermally-aware design techniques.
