  16. More fun facts about semiconductor industry • 30 million can fit on the head of a pin • You could fit more than 2,000 across the width of a human hair • If car prices had fallen at the same rate as the price of a single transistor has since 1968, a new car today would cost about 1 cent • More transistor produced each year than the number of grains of rice globally ECE 15B Spring 2011

  17. Technology Trends: Uniprocessor Performance (SPECint) 3X “Sea change” in chip design: multiple “cores” or processors per chip 1.20x/year 1.52x/year Performance (vs. VAX-11/780) 1.25x/year • VAX : 1.25x/year 1978 to 1986 • RISC + x86: 1.52x/year 1986 to 2002 • RISC + x86: 1.20x/year 2002 to present ECE 15B Spring 2011

  19. Other computing platforms (why not everything from silicon are microprocessors?) Involves NRE cost Cost = Nonrecurring engineering cost/volume + Production cost Production cost = (1+Defect density * Area/ alpha) alpha, where alpha = 1 to 5 ECE 15B Spring 2011

  20. Other computing platforms (why not everything microprocessors?) μP manufacturing cost (at small volumes) ASIC performance Market size: - Semiconductor industry >$1000B - Microprocessor (w. embedded) > $100B For comparison: USA GDP ~ $14000B (24% of worlds total)

  22. Layers of Abstractions Application (ex: browser) Operating Compiler System (Mac OSX) Software Assembler Instruction Set Architecture Hardware Processor Memory I/O system Datapath & Control Digital Design Circuit Design transistors Computation is implemented using many layers of abstractions – WHY? ECE 15B Spring 2011

  23. Layers of Abstraction Need Many Layers to Handle Complexity This class is about this region Application (ex: browser) Operating Compiler System (Mac OSX) Software Assembler Instruction Set Architecture Hardware Processor Memory I/O system Datapath & Control Digital Design Circuit Design transistors ECE 15B Spring 2011

  24. C compiler assembler Below the Program • High-level language program (in C) swap (int v[], int k) (int temp; temp = v[k]; v[k] = v[k+1]; v[k+1] = temp; ) • Assembly language program (for MIPS) swap: sll $2, $5, 2 add $2, $4, $2 lw $15, 0($2) lw $16, 4($2) sw $16, 0($2) sw $15, 4($2) jr $31 • Machine (object, binary) code (for MIPS) 000000 00000 00101 0001000010000000 000000 00100 00010 0001000000100000 . . . one-to-many one-to-one ECE 15B Spring 2011

  25. Below the Program temp = v[k]; v[k] = v[k+1]; v[k+1] = temp; lw $t0, 0($2) lw $t1, 4($2) sw $t1, 0($2) sw $t0, 4($2) High Level Language Program (e.g., C) Compiler Assembly Language Program (e.g.,MIPS) Assembler 0000 1001 1100 0110 1010 1111 0101 1000 1010 1111 0101 1000 0000 1001 1100 0110 1100 0110 1010 1111 0101 1000 0000 1001 0101 1000 0000 1001 1100 0110 1010 1111 Machine Language Program (MIPS) Machine Interpretation Hardware Architecture Description (e.g., block diagrams) Architecture Implementation Logic Circuit Description(Circuit Schematic Diagrams)

  26. ECE 15B: So what’s in it for me? • Learning computer systems from a programmer’s point of view • What the programmer writes • How it is converted to something the computer understands • How computer interprets the program • What makes programs go slow ECE 15B Spring 2011

  27. The Rise of Embedded Computers In millions Intel Atom, ~ 50 M Tran. Population 6.4B in 2004, i.e. ~ 1PC, 2.2 cell phones, and 2.5 televisions for every 8 people on the planet ECE 15B Spring 2011

  28. Advantages of Higher-Level Languages ? • Allow the programmer to think in a more natural language and for their intended use (Fortran for scientific computation, Cobol for business programming, Lisp for symbol manipulation, Java for web programming, …) • Improve programmer productivity – more understandable code that is easier to debug and validate • Improve program maintainability • Allow programs to be independent of the computer on which they are developed (compilers and assemblers can translate high-level language programs to the binary instructions of any machine) • Emergence of optimizing compilers that produce very efficient assembly code optimized for the target machine • Higher-level languages • As a result, very little programming is done today at the assembler level ECE 15B Spring 2011

  29. ECE 15B: So what’s in it for me? • Learn big ideas in computer engineering • Principle of abstraction used to build systems as layers • 5 classic components of a computer • Data can be anything (integers, floating point, characters): program determines what it is • Stored program concept: instructions just data • Principle of locality, exploited via memory hierarchy • Greater performance by exploiting parallelism ECE 15B Spring 2011

  30. ECE 15B: can also help you • Assembly Language Programming • This is a skill you will pick up as a side effect of understanding big ideas • Hardware Design • Hardware at the abstract level with only a little bit of physical implementation details to give perspective • Understand Language Concept • If you know one, you should be able to learn another “low” level programming language on your own • C constructs used in many other “higher” level programming languages ECE 15B Spring 2011

  31. ECE 15B: Does Not Teach • A specific assembler language • 486 instruction set • ARM instruction set (i.e. Apple A5 processor with ARM Cortex-A9 in iPad2, or iPhone) • PowerPC instruction set • Because technologies change so dramatically • Learning the concepts is more important that learning the language • Learning abstract ideas is more important that learning the specific features ECE 15B Spring 2011

  32. Features Assembler & Debug Cycle-accurate simulation GUI and Script support Detailed statistics including runtime conflicts Implementation C - 35 K lines of code TCL - 7 K lines of code My Own Background... MMT Simulator Memory latency reduction with fine-grain migrating threads in NUMA shared-memory multiprocessors” (with M. Dorojevets) in: Proc. PDCS’02, Cambridge, MA, Nov. 2002, pp. 762-767 ECE 15B Spring 2011

  33. Summary • Continued rapid improvement in computing • May end up soon but new paradigms and concept will likely inherit a lot from traditional computer implantation, e.g. multi core • Hardware/software interface is important layer in the hierarchy to understand how computing is implemented ECE 15B Spring 2011
