Architecting the Next Generation of Asynchronous, Distributed GPUs for the AI Era

The rapid evolution of machine learning workloads has fundamentally transformed GPU hardware, driving architectures toward Multi-Chip Module (MCM) topologies, asynchronous execution primitives, and persistent, multi-phase kernel behaviors. Despite these shifts, cycle-level simulation infrastructure has lagged behind, lacking the native capability to model the physical non-uniformity of modern GPUs alongside the massive scale of state-of-the-art AI workloads. To bridge this gap, we present a cycle-level simulation framework designed to accurately model modern GPU generations, including Ampere, Hopper, and Blackwell. Rigorously validated against physical silicon, the simulator achieves a 99% Pearson correlation coefficient and a 13.4% mean absolute cycle error on the H100 GPU. Utilizing this infrastructure, we conduct architectural case studies to evaluate emerging design trajectories, including chiplet topology scaling, expanded SRAM capacity and bandwidth, and inter-GPU prefetching strategies.

LRMP: Layer Replication with Mixed Precision for Spatial In-memory DNN Accelerators

In-memory computing (IMC) with non-volatile memories (NVMs) has emerged as a promising approach to address the rapidly growing computational demands of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). Mapping DNN layers spatially onto NVM-based IMC accelerators achieves high degrees of parallelism. However, two challenges that arise in this approach are the highly non-uniform distribution of layer processing times and high area requirements. We propose LRMP, a method to jointly apply layer replication and mixed precision quantization to improve the performance of DNNs when mapped to area-constrained NVM-based IMC accelerators. LRMP uses a combination of reinforcement learning and integer linear programming to search the replication-quantization design space using a model that is closely informed by the target hardware architecture. Across five DNN benchmarks, LRMP achieves 2.8-9$\times$ latency and 11.8-19$\times$ throughput improvement at iso-accuracy.
