Power Wall+ Memory Wall + ILP (Instruction level parallelism) Wall= Brick Wall There are two ways to scale speed by a factor x. Scale the number of (running) cores by x Power will scale by the same factor x Scale the clock frequency f and voltage V by x Dynamic power will scale by x to the power 3 (CV2f ) Static power will scale by x (Vileakage) Total power lies somewhere in between Clock scaling is worse…
