Adelia: A 4-nm LLM Processing Unit With Streamlined Dataflow and Dual-Mode Parallelism for Maximizing Hardware Efficiency

Adelia: A 4-nm LLM Processing Unit With Streamlined Dataflow and Dual-Mode Parallelism for Maximizing Hardware Efficiency 150 150

Abstract:

The proliferation of large language models (LLMs) as cross-domain foundation models is fueled by aggressive scaling in both parameter counts and inference-time computation. The emergence of sophisticated reasoning models further accelerates this trend, demanding longer context windows and escalating the computational and memory burdens of inference. A fundamental challenge arises …

Beyond Backside Power: Backside Signal Routing as Technology Booster for Standard-Cell Scaling

Beyond Backside Power: Backside Signal Routing as Technology Booster for Standard-Cell Scaling 150 150

Abstract:

Advances in process technology enabling backside metals (BSMs) and contacts offer new design–technology co-optimization (DTCO) opportunities to further enhance power, performance, and area gains (PPA) in sub-3-nm nodes. This work exploits backside (BS) contact technology within standard cells to extend both signal and clock routing to BSM layers, …
