Abstract

The System Level Interconnect Prediction (SLIP) Workshop focuses on modeling and prediction of usable properties of optimized interconnect systems and their impact on system performance&#046; Both theory and applications of interconnect prediction techniques are highlighted, with emphasis on applications to architectural and micro&#8211;architecture exploration, physical design, interconnect technology planning and communication networks&#046; In addition to the presentation of state&#8211;of&#8211;the&#8211;art papers in these fields, invited talks and tutorials by leading researchers aim to encourage dialogue between the architecture, physical design, and interconnect technology communities&#046;<br><b>Keywords:</b> Interconnect prediction methodology:<br>&#8211; Statistical properties of complex interconnect systems<br>&#8211; Techniques and calibrations for &#8243;Rentian&#8243; and &#8243;non&#8211;Rentian&#8243; interconnect estimation<br>&#8211; A priori, on&#8211;line, and a posteriori estimation of interconnect design parameters (wire length, area, power, delay, etc&#046;)<br>Applications in system design:<br>&#8211; Interconnect parameter and yield estimation for use in architecture design and CAD<br>&#8211; Interconnect planning flows for specific objectives (e&#046;g&#046;, low power, high performance) or target technologies (e&#046;g&#046;, ASIC/SoC, FPGA, System&#8211;in&#8211;package, 3&#8211;D integration, molecular/nanoelectronics)<br>Applications in technology evaluation:<br>&#8211; Interconnect technology prediction for long&#8211;term industry roadmap projections<br>&#8211; Early (predictive) evaluation of novel interconnect technologies in a system&#8242;s context<br>&#8211; Architectural and micro&#8211;architectural effects of interconnect optimization approaches<br>
