Energy consumption and heat dissipation have become key considerations for modern high performance computer systems. In this paper, we focus on non-clairvoyant speed scaling to mi...
The CPU is one of the major power consumers in a portable computer, and considerable power can be saved by turning off the CPU when it is not doing useful work. In Apple's Ma...
Low power has been considered as an important issue in instruction cache (I-cache) designs. Several studies have shown that the I-cache can be tuned to reduce power. These techniq...
Energy conservation is an important issue in the design of embedded systems. Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) and Dynamic Power Management (DPM) are two widely used techniques for sav...
Sysman is a system management infrastructure for clusters and data centers similar to the /proc file system. It provides a familiar yet powerful interface for the management of se...
