Parallelism is inherent in most problems but due to current programming models and architectures which have evolved from a sequential paradigm, the parallelism exploited is restricted. We believe that the most efficient parallel execution is achieved when applications are represented as graphs of operations and data, which can then be mapped for execution on a modular and scalable processing-in-memory architecture. In this paper, we present PHOENIX, a general-purpose architecture composed of many Processing Elements (PEs) with memory storage and efficient computational logic units interconnected with a mesh network-on-chip. A preliminary design of PHOENIX shows it is possible to include 10,000 PEs with a storage capacity of 0.6GByte on a 1.5cm(2) chip using 14nm technology. PHOENIX may achieve 6TFLOPS with a power consumption of up to 42W, which results in a peak energy efficiency of at least 143GFLOPS/W. A simple estimate shows that for a 4K FFT, PHOENIX achieves 117GFLOPS/W which is more than double of what is achieved by state-of-the-art systems. |
