4 Table of Contents About the Authors Introduction Algorithm Implementation Experimental Results Related Works Conclusion

5 Introduction Multimedia Becoming A Standard in Mobile Computing Audio Video Data Goal on Mobile Systems Manage System Resources Quality of Service - High Performance Energy Efficiency - Battery Life

6 Greater Control Over System Resources Hardware Adaptability CPU Voltage Scaling E = aCVf 2 t Software Adaptability Application Quality levels Statistical Performance Requirements Soft Real-Time guarantees

7 How Do We Approach System Resource Management? Adapt resources based on system layers Most approaches in research adapt a single layer Possible to adapt across multiple layers? Adaptive Layers Application Operating System /Network Hardware

8 Multiple Layer Adaptation Requires Coordination Conflict Adapting Multiple System Layers Scale down CPU Increase the application QoS Different Objectives Minimize Energy Consumption Maximize Quality/Performance Coordinate Objectives at a Higher Level

9 The Purpose of GRACE Framework: Cross-Layer Adaptation Global Resource Adaptation via CoopEration Figures from S. Adve. The Illinois GRACE Project: Global Resource Adaptation through CoopEration, Workshop on Self-Healing Adaptive and Self-Managed Systems, 2002 Global cooperation of resources Coordinator GRACE Adaptation over 1 or 2 layers Application Network Protocols Operating System Architecture, Hardware Current Approaches

10 GRACE-OS: Enhanced CPU Scheduler Previous Methods Soft Real-Time (SRT) Scheduling Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) GRACE-OS DVS is integrated into the CPU Scheduler Continue to keep performance guarantees of SRT Scheduling

12 Design of GRACE-OS Profiler How to estimate cycle usage? Monitor CPU cycle usage of a task Estimate demand by online profiling SRT Scheduler How to allocate CPU Resources? Allocate CPU cycles to task based on profiler Speed Adapter How to set CPU Speed/Voltage? Set CPU to minimum required speed based on #cycles allocated

13 Algorithm: Profiler How to estimate the cycle usage? Estimate based on statistical distribution instead than instantaneous demand More stability in CPU speeds Meets performance requirements of SRT Profile during run-time

14 Algorithm: SRT Scheduler Determine which task to execute When and how long (# CPU cycles) Grace-OS is a stochastic scheduler Decide # cycles to allocate based on: Performance requirement, p Demand distribution of task F(C) = P[X C] p X, # cycles required for task C, # cycles allocated to task

20 System Call Overhead System Calls: 900-1300 cycles Multimedia Processing: 2x10 5 - 2x10 8 cycles 0.0004% - 0.5% of cycles per job

21 Profiling and Estimation Overhead Profiling Cost: 26-38 cycles Overhead for online demand estimation is high (0.1% - 100% of cycles per job) Demand estimation should be infrequent Stable models allow for infrequent estimation Figure: Cost of Demand Estimation

22 Speed Scaling Overhead Costs 8,000 to 16,000 cycles (~10-50 us) Should be invoked infrequently (500 us in GRACE-OS) Speed change overhead should improve with processor design

23 Stability of Demand Distribution Codec: mpgplay a)Cycle usage varies greatly b)Demand distribution remains stable

24 Stability of Demand Distribution (Other Codecs)

25 Efficiency of GRACE-OS Compare to other allocation schemes Running Single Applications Misses deadlines 0.3%-0.6% 92% CPU busy time at lowest CPU speed 53.4%-71.6% reduction in energy Running Multiple Applications Misses deadlines 4.9% 83.8% CPU busy time at lowest CPU speed

26 CPU Usage for Multiple Applications Dynamic DVS spends more time in lowest CPU speed than other DVS schemes

27 Energy Efficiency of GRACE-OS toast and madplay – Low CPU demand GRACE-OS savings limited by CPU settings

28 Impact of Setting Performance p Normalized energy increases p = 0.5 to p = 0.95 Fewer energy savings p = 0.95 to p = 1.0 Need more CPU settings Impact of p on Normalized Energy

29 Impact of Mixed Workload Extra allocation to extra best-effort applications increases energy consumption Less time for each application Increases total CPU demand Impact of Mixed Workload
