Exploring the Evolution and Future of Computing: Moore's Law Debunked

Dive into the critical analysis of Moore's Law and Dennard Scaling by Sarita Adve from the University of Illinois, uncovering the shift towards a new era focused on doing more with less in computing hardware and software abstraction. Discover the concept of "Less Law of Computing" and the emphasis on efficiency, specialization, and approximation in hardware design. Explore the limitless possibilities in computing systems beyond just processors, reflecting on recent Turing Awards in architecture and pondering the exciting prospects of the next innovative systems and architectures.

Presentation Transcript

1. Debunking and Deconstructing Moores Law Sarita Adve University of Illinois / EPFL sadve@illinois.edu

2. Moores Law, Dennard Scaling Dead, Dying, Will Die,

3. A New Era o More with Mo re ^ More with Less Need new roadmap: A Less Law of Computing

4. More With Less Hardware Waste Software Abstraction Useful work Less Law: Waste Will Decay Exponentially Remove waste: Efficiency Focus on less: Specialization Cut corners: Approximate Hardware Software Abstraction (Architecture) OR

5. Less is More Computers are everywhere Laps, hands, skin, clothes, things, Limits for on-chip, but aggregate compute unlimited Unlimited opportunities, exponentials abound But no longer just the processor It s the system stupid!

6. Recent Turing Awards in Architecture Chuck Thacker: Alto system (PC revolution) Processor, Memory, Display, Mouse, Ethernet Fred Brooks: The definition of architecture (System 360)

7. Exciting New Era What will be the next system? What will be the next architecture (abstraction)? Who here will win the Turing award?
