Abstract-Temperature-driven floorplaners have been recently proposed to alleviate the thermal problem in 3D multi-processor systems-on-chip (MPSoC). However, the proposed algorithms fail to provide fast placement of the modules when the complexity and the number of functional units in the stack increases. This paper proposes a fast and scalable CPU-GPU implementation of a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm that performs a thermal optimization of complex 3D MPSoCs, capable of obtaining optimal solutions in a reduced time. A comparative study shows that this work outperforms other proposals and reduces the computational time of the thermal optimization of complex architectures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
