Outline. MotivationProblem formulation and modelsExperimental resultsConclusion. 1. Motivation. Ever increasing integration level and clock rate lead to increased temperature and temperature gradientExtra clock skew and performance degradationExcessive leakageIncreased cooling costIncreased clock needs interconnect pipeliningMicroprocessor floorplan should smooth the temperature gradient and also take into account interconnect pipelining.
