Abstract :
Many performance/cost advantages can be gained if a chip-set is optimally redesigned to take advantage of the high wire density, fast interconnect delays, and high pin-counts available in MCM-D/flip-chip technology. Examples are given showing for what conditions the cost of the system can be reduced through chip partitioning and how the performance/cost of a computer core can be increased
