The End of the Road for General Purpose Processors & the Future of Computing

Nov 22 2019 1:00PM toNov 22 2019 2:00PMNSF Room E2020Abstract:After 40 years of remarkable progress in general-purpose processors, a variety of factors are combining to lead to a much slower rate of performance growth in the future. These limitations arise from three different areas: IC technology, architectural inefficiencies, and changing applications and usage. The end of Dennard scaling and the slowdown in Moore's Law will require much more efficient architectural approaches than we have relied on. Although progress ... More at
