Recently proposed techniques for peak power management [5] involve centralized decision-making and assume quick evaluation of the various power management states. These techniques...
Real-world workloads rarely saturate multi-core processor. CPU C-states can be used to reduce power consumption during processor idle time. The key unsolved problem is: when and h...
The design and evaluation of microprocessor architectures is a difficult and time-consuming task. Although small, handcoded microbenchmarks can be used to accelerate performance e...
Addressing the challenges of extreme scale computing requires holistic design of new programming models and systems that support those models. This paper discusses the Angstrom pr...
