Summary<br />
Uniprocessor performance scaling is nearing it’s limits<br />
<strong>Moore</strong>’s Law is great from an integration standpoint, but…<br />
• Power scalability isn’t tracking due to approaching V min<br />
limits<br />
• This fact, combined with the challenges of Amdahl’s Law will<br />
ultimately place practical limits on the #cores in CMPs<br />
The demand for increasing performance won’t go away, but<br />
we need to find new ways of easily offering that performance<br />
• Programmer productivity is a first order consideration<br />
• Deployment of significantly more power effective HW structures<br />
• Lots of interesting system architecture innovations are possible<br />
The time for Accelerated Computing with<br />
Heterogeneous HW is here!<br />
