Title :
How to stop interconnects from hindering the future of computing!

Abstract :
Unprecedented transistor integration capacity will be available to make computing truly ubiquitous, but the energy consumption will be a major challenge. Compute energy can be reduced by employing near threshold voltage operation. However, data movement energy will become prohibitive. Severe tapering of interconnect bandwidth brings power consumption within limit, but potentially hindering the system performance.
