MULTI-CORE DYNAMIC WORKLOAD MANAGEMENT

摘要

A dynamic scheduler is provided that schedules tasks for a plurality of cores based upon current operating characteristics for the cores. The current operating characteristics include a predicted leakage current for each core based upon an analytical model.

1. A system comprising:
a plurality of cores; an analytic core power and thermal modeler configured to analytically model a leakage power for each core based upon the cores' native leakage currents and current temperatures and to model a dynamic power for each core based upon a current voltage and clock frequency for each core, and a dynamic scheduler further configured to schedule tasks for the cores based upon the modeled leakage powers and dynamic powers.
