Application-Specific, Performance-Aware Energy Optimization

摘要

An apparatus comprises: a non-transitory memory comprising an application; a controller coupled to the memory and configured to adjust a configuration associated with the application independently of other applications in the apparatus, wherein the configuration is an assignment of resources of the apparatus; and a profiler coupled to the memory and configured to: measure a measured performance corresponding to the configuration; and measure a measured power consumption corresponding to the configuration. A method comprises: determining a performance associated with an application; executing a configuration associated with the application in order to substantially maintain the performance while reducing an energy consumption associated with the application; measuring a measured performance resulting from the executing; and adjusting the configuration in response to the measured performance.
