Abstract
Increase in chip inactivity in the future threatens the performance of many-core systems and therefore, efficient techniques are required for continuous scaling of transistors. As of a result of this challenge, future proposed many-core system designs must consider the possibility of a 50% functioning chip per time as well maintaining performance. Fortunately, this 50% inactivity can be increased by
managing the temperature of active nodes and the placement of the dark nodes to leverage a balance working chip whilst considering the lifetime of nodes. However, allocating dark nodes inefficiently can increase the temperature of the chip and increase the waiting time of applications. Consequently, due to stochastic application characteristics, a dynamic rescheduling technique is more desirable compared to fixed design mapping. In this paper, we propose an Ageing Before Temperature Electromigration-Aware, Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) & Time-dependent Dielectric Breakdown (TDDB) Neighbour Allocation (ABENA 2.0), a dynamic rescheduling management system which considers the ageing and temperature before mapping applications. ABENA also considers the location of active and dark nodes and migrate task based on the characteristics of the nodes. Our proposed algorithm employ Dynamic Voltage Frequency Scaling (DVFS) to reduce the Voltage and Frequency (VF) of the nodes. Results show that, our proposed methods improve the ageing of nodes compared to a conventional round-robin management system by 10% in temperature, and 10% ageing
