07041 Summary – Power-aware Computing Systems

Authors: Luca Benini, Naehyuck Chang, Ulrich Kremer, and Christian W. Probst

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7041, Power-aware Computing Systems (2007)


Abstract
The program of the Dagstuhl seminar 07041 on Power-aware Computing Systems featured presentations of about 25 participating researchers from academia and industry. They were chosen to represent major areas in targeting the energy consumption of a computing system – Applications, Compilers, Virtual-execution Environments, Operating Systems, and Hardware. In order to continue the work of the predecessor Dagstuhl seminar held in 2005, the results of that seminar [1] were discussed, with the aim of developing a vision of challenges, problems, and research activities in some of the key areas identified in 2005. The first part of the seminar was dedicated to lively discussions that led to the identification of three areas that were considered being most interesting. As a result, three groups were formed to further identify challenges and opportunities. The results of these groups are presented in this report. In addition, abstracts of the presentations as well as work-in-progress papers are published in these proceedings.

07041 Working Group – Towards Interfaces for Integrated Performance and Power Analysis and Simulation

Authors: Chris Bleakley, Tom Clerckx, Harald Devos, Matthias Grumer, Alex Janek, Ulrich Kremer, Christian W. Probst, Phillip Stanley-Marbell, Christian Steger, Vasanth Venkatachalam, and Manuel Wendt

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7041, Power-aware Computing Systems (2007)


Abstract
In the design and optimization of power-aware computing systems, it is often desired to estimate power consumption at various levels of abstraction, e.g., at the transistor, gate, RTL, behavioral or transaction levels. Tools for power estimation at these different levels of abstraction require specialized expertise, e.g., understanding of device physics for circuit-level power estimation, and as such are necessarily developed by different research communities. In the optimization of complete platforms however, it is desired to be able to obtain aggregate power and performance estimates for the different components of a system, and this requires the ability to model the system at a mixture of levels of abstraction. One approach to enabling such cross-abstraction modeling, is to define a mechanism for interchange of data between tools at different layers of abstraction, for both static analysis and simulation-based studies. This document presents preliminary discussions on the requirements of such an interface.

Inter-program Optimizations for Disk Energy Reduction

Authors: Jerry Hom and Ulrich Kremer

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 5141, Power-aware Computing Systems (2005)


Abstract
Compiler support for power and energy management has been shown to be effective in reducing overall power dissipation and energy consumption of programs, for instance through compiler-directed resource hibernation and dynamic frequency and voltage scaling. The multi-programming model with virtual memory presents a virtualized view of the machine such that compilers typically take single programs as input, without the knowledge of other programs that may run at the same time on the target machine. This work investigates the benefits of optimizing sets of programs with the goal of reducing overall disk energy. The two key ideas are to synchronize the disk accesses across a group of programs thereby allowing longer disk idle periods, and to utilize execution context knowledge to allocate maximal buffer sizes. The compiler inserts runtime system calls for profiling the application and disk, uses execution context in allocating buffers, and synchronizes disk accesses with an inverse barrier policy. Data prefetching has been added to mitigate the overhead of synchronization. Experimental results are based on three streaming applications and their subsets. The experiments show that inter-program optimizations can have significant disk energy savings over individually optimized programs. Applying the most aggressive inter-program optimizations result in energy savings of up to 49%, and saving 34% on average.
