Computing systems have undergone several inflexion points - while Moore's law guided the semiconductor industry to cram more and more transistors and logic into the same volume, the limits of instruction-level parallelism (ILP) and the end of Dennard's scaling drove the industry towards multi-core chips. We have now entered the era of domain-specif...

... soon ran out of parallelizability as well, both due to limits imposed by Amdahl's law [5] and a fundamental lack of general purpose parallelizable applications and workloads. Fig 1, referenced from [96] shows 42 years of microprocessor trends taking into account transistor density, performance, frequency, typical power and number of cores. The figure is based on known transistor counts published by Intel, AMD and IBM's Power processors and it also overlays the key architectural inflexion points detailed by Henessey and Patterson in [57]. ...
