| Abstract(in English) | This paper presents a method to minimize the total energy consumption under time and area constraints, considering interconnection and functional unit (FU) energy. Multiple supply and threshold voltage scheme is used to minimize the static and dynamic energy in the FUs. A genetic-algorithm-based-search method is proposed for the energy consumption minimization problem, so that near-optimal solution can be found in a reasonable time for large-size problems. Interconnection energy reduction is achieved by increasign the sharing of interconnections among FUs. Experimental results show that up to 50% of energy can be saved by our proposed method. |
