On-line Cache Resizing for Low-Power Microprocessors

We propose a novel scheme, called on-line cache resizing (OCR), to dynamically resize the cache and meet the size requirement of each application. At each periodic interval, the scheme gathers the cache hit-miss statistics at runtime using an extra tag array. These executing statistics serve as inputs to an analytical model of cache energy. The scheme uses energy as a primary metric to dynamically increase/decrease the number of active cache ways for the next interval. The scheme minimizes the active cache size to save energy with minimal performance loss. The simulation with SPEC 2000 benchmarks shows that OCR results in an average of 38.4% energy saving compared with fixed-size caches, with only 2.0% performance loss.     

基于内存文件系统的分布式文件服务器Cache系统

分布式文件服务器在虚拟机平台上的应用越来越普遍,但现有的文件服务器Cache系统不适合在虚拟机上使用。利用内存文件系统管理Cache中的信息,并设置Cache中文件的大小阈值,使Cache系统间歇性使用,从而有效地解决了这一问题。试验结果表明,基于该设计思想实现的Cache系统性能优异,维护简便,可以达到预期的使用效果。
