A Novel Software Solution for Localized Thermal Problems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract: In this paper, we propose a temperature-aware DFS (Dynamic Frequency Scaling) technique using the performance counters that is already embedded in the commercial microprocessors. By using performance counters and simple regression analysis, we can predict the localized temperature and efficiently schedule the tasks considering the temperature. The proposed technique is especially beneficial to potential localized thermal problems that are inevitable due to limited number of costly CMOS thermal sensors. When localized thermal problems that were not detected by thermal sensors are found after fabrication, the thermal problems can be avoided by the proposed software solution without re-fabrication costs. The evaluation results show that the proposed technique is comparable to the DFS technique using CMOS thermal sensors.

This paper presents a novel, integer-linear programming (ILP) model for an identical parallel-machine scheduling problem with family setup times that minimizes the total weighted flow time (TWFT). Some researchers have addressed parallel-machine scheduling problems in the literature over the last three decades. However, the existing studies have been limited to the research of independent jobs,...
متن کاملExperimental evaluation of thermal stability of PS- MWCNT nanocomposite as a real-time dosimeter
Introduction: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are ideal reinforcing fillers for a polymer matrix, because of their nanometer size, high aspect ratio and, more importantly, their excellent mechanical strength, and electrical and thermal conductivity. The CNTs are categorized into two groups: SWCNT and MWCNT. MWCNTs would have diameters ranging from 2 to 100 nm and lengths of up to tens ...
