Active Unit Selection Method for Computation Migration in Temperature-Aware Microprocessors
Byeong-Seok Lee, Cheol Hong Kim, Jeong–A Lee · 2010
Dynamic Thermal Management (DTM) degrades the processor performance for lowering temperature. For this reason, reducing the peak temperature on microprocessors can improve the performance by reducing the performance loss due to DTM. In this study, we analyze various unit selection techniques for computation migration. According to our simulation results, dynamic computation migration based on the thermal difference between the units shows best performance among compared models.
