  abstract = {Technologies are now emerging to construct
     molecular-scale electronic wires and switches using bottom-up
     self-assembly. This opens the possibility of constructing
     nanoscale circuits and memories where active devices are just a
     few nanometers square and wire pitches may be on the order of ten
     nanometers. The features can be defined at this scale without
     using photolithography. The available assembly techniques have
     relatively high defect rates compared to conventional
     lithographic integrated circuits and can only produce very
     regular structures. Nonetheless, with proper memory organization,
     it is reasonable to expect these technologies to provide memory
     densities in excess of 10/sup 11/ b/cm/sup 2/ with modest active
     power requirements under 0.6 W/Tb/s for random read operations.},

  abstract = {In this paper we explore the relationship between power
     and area. By exploiting parallelism (and thus using more area)
     one can reduce the switching frequency allowing a reduction in
     VDD which results in a reduction in power. Under a scaling regime
     which allows threshold voltage to increase as VDD decreases we
     find that dynamic and subthreshold power loss in CMOS exhibit a
     dependence on area proportional to A^((\sigma^-3)/\sigma) while
     gate leakage power proportional to A^((\sigma^-6)/\sigma) and
     short circuit power A^((\sigma^-6)/\sigma). Thus, with the large
     number of devices at our disposal we can exploit techniques such
     as spatial computing--tailoring the program directly to the
     hardware--to overcome the negative effects of scaling. The value
     of s describes the effectiveness of the technique for a
     particular circuit and/or algorithm--for circuits that exhibit a
     value of \sigma <= 3, power will be a constant or reducing
     function of area. We briefly speculate on how \sigma might be
     influenced by a move to nanoscale technology.},

     energy-efficient model for implementing program kernels. In this
     paper we explore the feasibility of using SC for more than small
     kernels. To this end, we evaluate the performance and energy
     efficiency of entire applications on Tartan, a general-purpose
     architecture which integrates a reconfigurable fabric (RF) with a
     superscalar core. Our compiler automatically partitions and
     compiles an application into an instruction stream for the core
     and a configuration for the RF. We use a detailed simulator to
     capture both timing and energy numbers for all parts of the
     system. \par Our results indicate that a hierarchical RF
     architecture, designed around a scalable interconnect, is
     instrumental in harnessing the benefits of spatial computation.
     The interconnect uses static configuration and routing at the
     lower levels and a packet-switched, dynamically-routed network at
     the top level. Tartan is most energy-efficient when almost all of
     the application is mapped to the RF, indicating the need for the
     RF to support most general-purpose programming constructs. Our
     initial investigation reveals that such a system can provide, on
     average, an order of magnitude improvement in energy-delay
     compared to an aggressive superscalar core on single-threaded
     workloads.},

  abstract = {Closely coupling a reconfigurable fabric with a
     conventional processor has been shown to successfully improve the
     system performance. However, today s superscalar pro-cessors are
     both complex and adept at extracting Instruction Level
     Parallelism (ILP), which introduces many complex issues to the
     design of a hybrid CPU-RFU system. This paper examines the design
     of a superscalar processor augmented with a closely-coupled
     recon-figurable fabric. It identifies architectural and compiler
     issues that affect the performance of the overall system.
     Previous efforts at combining a processor core with a
     reconfigurable fabric are examined in the light of these issues.
     We also present simulation results that emphasize the impact of
     these factors.},

     substantial performance improvements over conventional processors
     on some computational kernels. These benefits derive from
     hardware customization which avoids the mismatch between the
     basic requirements of the algorithms and the architectures of the
     processors. A reconfigurable fabric alone is not sufficient for
     general-purpose computing since it can be ill-suited to executing
     entire programs due to space limitations, dataflow-centricity,
     and inefficiency at implementing some operations (e.g.
     floating-point arithmetic). These observations have led to the
     appearance of numerous designs which place some form of
     reconfigurable logic under the control of a general-purpose
     processor. The authors explore the ways in which a reconfigurable
     fabric can be interfaced with a general-purpose processor. While
     off-chip reconfigurable fabrics have proven to be quite effective
     at performing streaming, data-intensive computations, they
     require large streams of data to overcome the latency between the
     devices. We explore the design space for an on-chip fabric, i.e.,
     a reconfigurable function unit (RFU). An RFU allows smaller
     portions of application to be mapped to the fabric in the form of
     custom instructions. Though the speedups achieved for stream
     based computations will in general be much larger than those for
     custom instructions, they are limited to a smaller class of
     applications. Custom instructions, however, can be found in a
     larger class of programs, and compiler techniques can
     automatically create them.},
