Task allocation and migration on a star-network
… thesis presents an approach of allocating the tasks to a multiprocessor system called the star network. Generally, an incoming task requires only a part of the star network, and not the whole network, for its execution. So, we need a task allocation strategy which can identify the free …

Dynamic Thermal Management for Microprocessors
… which enable the chip to autonomously modify the task execution and power dissipation characteristics so that lower-cost cooling solutions could be adopted while still guaranteeing safe temperature regulation. As long as the temperature is regulated, the system reliability can be improved, leakage …

Mental Workload in Personal Information Management: Understanding PIM Practices Across Multiple Devices
… in this context, especially when transitioning tasks from one device to another. In a survey of 220 knowledge workers, users reported high frustration with current devices' support for task migration, e.g. making files available on multiple machines. To investigate further, I conducted a …

An Efficient Data Structure for Implementing Splitter Hyperobjects in Task-Parallel Systems
… structure to support splitter hyperobjects for task-parallel systems. Splitters can mitigate races on shared, nonlocal state, where parallel nested tasks make independent local modifications without affecting shared history. The data structure is inspired by “persistent” trees, but refined to …

ADAPTIVE POWER MANAGEMENT FOR COMPUTERS AND MOBILE DEVICES
… and frequency scaling (DVFS), and dynamic task migration for workload consolidation are system level power reduction techniques widely used during runtime. In the first part of the dissertation, we concentrate on the dynamic power management of the personal computer and server platform …

Intelligent Load Balancing in Cloud Computer Systems
… individual servers in order to process related tasks in several environments at the same time. Clouds are typically more cost-effective than single computers of comparable computing performance. The sheer physical size of the system itself means that thousands of machines may be involved. The …

EFFICIENT AGEING-AWARE TECHNIQUES FOR EMERGING LOW POWER MULTI-CORE SYSTEMS
… improves the lifetime of nodes by migrating tasks from hot nodes to dark nodes at runtime. The second algorithm monitors and improves the lifetime of nodes by migrating tasks after an epoch. Additionally, the algorithm monitors the lifetime of two neighbouring nodes and then selects the node …

Failure avoidance techniques for HPC systems based on failure prediction
… allows preventive measures to be taken, such as task migration or checkpointing the application before failure. The same methodology can be generalized and applied to anomaly avoidance, where anomaly can mean anything from system failures to performance degradation at the application level. For …
