Title
POD: A 3D-Integrated Broad-Purpose Acceleration Layer
Abstract
To build a future many-core processor, industry must address the challenges of energy consumption and performance scalability. A 3D-integrated broad-purpose accelerator architecture called parallel-on-demand (POD) integrates a specialized SIMD-based die layer on top of a CISC superscalar processor to accelerate a variety of data-parallel applications. It also maintains binary compatibility and facilitates extensibility by virtualizing the acceleration capability.
