Abstract
En 中文
Dynamically adaptive multi-core architectures have been proposed as an effective solution to optimize performance for peak power constrained processors. In processors, the micro-architectural parameters or voltage/frequency of each core can be changed at run-time, thus providing a range of power/performance operating points for each core. In this paper, we propose Thread Progress Equalization (TPEq), a run-time mechanism for power constrained performance maximization of multithreaded applications running on dynamically adaptive multicore processors. Compared to existing approaches, TPEq (i) identifies and addresses two primary sources of inter-thread heterogeneity in multithreaded applications, (ii) determines the optimal core configurations in polynomial time with respect to the number of cores and configurations, and (iii) requires no modifications in the user-level source code. Our experimental evaluations demonstrate that TPEq outperforms state-of-the-art run-time power/performance optimization techniques proposed in literature for dynamically adaptive multicores by up to 23 percent.
