While it has become possible to design chips with many fast cores, the challenge is to be able to extract maximum performance without violating temperature constraints. Running the cores too hot slows down the processors, increases wasted energy, and decreases chip lifetime.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis team\u2019s paper presented a simple, yet effective approach known as power multiplexing, which periodically migrates the locations of active cores on a chip to redistribute the generated heat. Such spatiotemporal redistribution of power and heat reduces the peak temperature and produces a more uniform thermal field, thus mitigating the negative impact of peak temperatures and thermal gradients on performance and reliability.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESupported by the Semiconductor Research Corporation, Intel Corporation, and an IBM Faculty Award, this work reflects the multidisciplinary approach necessary to solving many critical problems facing the chip industry and demonstrates Georgia Tech\u2019s longstanding commitment to collaborative research.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E***********************\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPictured in the photo from left to right are ME Assistant Professor Satish Kumar; ECE Associate Professor Saibal Mukhopadhyay; Minki Cho, Mukhopadhyay\u0027s Ph.D. graduate, currently at Intel Labs, Hillsboro, Oregon; and Jie Xue, president of the IEEE Components, Packaging, and Manufacturing Technology Society.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EA multidisciplinary research team from Georgia Tech\u2019s School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) and the George W.
