How long can you sleep? Idle Time System Inefficiencies and Opportunities
Georgia Antoniou, Haris Volos, Jawad Haj Yahya +1
This work introduces a model-based framework that reveals the idle opportunity of modern servers running latency-critical applications. Specifically, three queuing models, M/M/1, c…
An opportunity to improve Data Center Efficiency: Optimizing the Server's Upgrade Cycle
Panagiota Nikolaou, Freddy Gabbay, Jawad Haj-Yahya +1
This work aims to improve a data center's efficiency by optimizing the server upgrade plan: determine the optimal timing for replacing old servers with new ones. The opportunity pr…
IChannels: Exploiting Current Management Mechanisms to Create Covert Channels in Modern Processors
Jawad Haj-Yahya, Jeremie S. Kim, A. Giray Yaglikci +5
To operate efficiently across a wide range of workloads with varying power requirements, a modern processor applies different current management mechanisms, which briefly throttle…
BurstLink: Techniques for Energy-Efficient Conventional and Virtual Reality Video Display
Jawad Haj-Yahya, Jisung Park, Rahul Bera +5
Conventional planar video streaming is the most popular application in mobile systems and the rapid growth of 360 video content and virtual reality (VR) devices are accelerating th…
FlexWatts: A Power- and Workload-Aware Hybrid Power Delivery Network for Energy-Efficient Microprocessors
Jawad Haj-Yahya, Mohammed Alser, Jeremie S. Kim +5
Modern client processors typically use one of three commonly-used power delivery network (PDN): 1) motherboard voltage regulators (MBVR), 2) integrated voltage regulators (IVR), an…
SysScale: Exploiting Multi-domain Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling for Energy Efficient Mobile Processors
Jawad Haj-Yahya, Mohammed Alser, Jeremie Kim +4
There are three domains in a modern thermally-constrained mobile system-on-chip (SoC): compute, IO, and memory. We observe that a modern SoC typically allocates a fixed power budge…
