چکیده
Long-term reliability of processors is experiencing growing attention since decreasing feature sizes and increasing power consumption have a negative influence on the lifespan. The reliability can also be influenced by Dynamic Power Management (DPM), since it affects the processor’s temperature. In this paper, it is examined how different DPM-strategies for MultiCore processors alter their lifespan. By simulating such a Multi-Core system using the Self Distributing Virtual Machine (SDVM), thus exploiting dynamic parallelism, it is shown that its long-term reliability can be influenced actively with different DPM strategies.

Reliability-Aware Power Management Of Multi-Core Systems (MPSoCs)
Long-term reliability of processors in embedded systems is experiencing growing attention since decreasing feature sizes and increasing power consumption have a negative influence on the lifespan. Among other measures, the reliability can be influenced significantly by Dynamic Power Management (DPM), since it affects the processor’s temperature. Compared to single-core systems reconfigurable mu...
متن کاملCore Power Management Issues in Asymmectric Multi/Many-Core Processors
Power managing is a major issue in designing the future asymmectric multi/many-core processors. The challenge is to provide a solution that has low power consumption, in addition to trade off a small decrease in performance and throughput. Our design includes asymmetric cores in consideration of different points in the view of power-performance efficiency during an application’s execution. In t...
متن کاملAdaptive Dynamic Frequency Scaling for Thermal-Aware 3D Multi-core Processors
3D integration technology can provide significant benefits of reduced interconnection delay and low power consumption in designing multi-core processors. However, the 3D integration technology magnifies the thermal challenges in multi-core processors due to high power density caused by stacking multiple layers vertically. For this reason, the 3D multi-core architecture cannot be practical witho...
متن کاملReducing Overheating-Induced Failures Via Performance-Aware CPU Power Management
Cluster end-users and administrators have become more cognizant of the fact that large-scale commodity clusters fail quite frequently, and the main source of these failures is hardware (e.g., processors) with the primary cause being heat. This situation is expected to worsen with even larger-scale clusters powered by faster (and/or multicore) processors. In this paper, we propose a power-manage...
متن کاملWorkload-Aware Voltage Regulator Optimization for Power Efficient Multi-Core
Modern multi-core processors use power management techniques such as dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) and clock gating (CG) which cause the processor to operate in various performance and power states depending on runtime workload characteristics. A voltage regulator (VR), which is designed to provide power to the processor at its highest performance level, can significantly degrade...
