Abstract
this paper we first discuss the wire metrics of interest and examine them in a contemporary 0.25m process. We then discuss technology scaling over the next several generations, from SIA and other predictions, and how our wire metrics trend over that time. We will examine the delay and bandwidth limitations of both long global wires and short local wires and discuss architectural design techniques that help us avoid the limitations of scaled wires.
