Adaptive Power Capping for Servers with Multithreaded Workloads

Sherief Reda, Ryan Cochran, Ayse Kivilcim Coskun

Abstract

Power capping in computer clusters enables energy budgeting, efficient power delivery, and management of operational and cooling costs. Pack and Cap is a novel, practical methodology to select thread packing and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) configurations by learning multithreaded workload characteristics and adapting to dynamic-power caps. Pack and Cap improves energy efficiency and achievable range of power caps.
