In order to achieve the match between power supply and demands under the variance of environments at real time, a reconfigurable technique is taken. In this paper, a dynamic power consumption model by using a lookup table as a unit is proposed. Then, we establish a system-level task scheduling model according to the task type. Based on single instruction multiple data (SIMD) architecture which contains a processing system and a control system with a Nios II processor, a practical dynamic reconfigurable system is built. The approach is evaluated on a hardware platform. The test results show that the system can automatically adjust the power consumption in case of external energy input changing. The utilization of the system dynamic power of their portion is from 80.05% to 91.75% during the first task assignment. During the entire processing cycle, the total energy efficiency is 97.67%.展开更多

Prior efforts have addressed this challenge based on either a cost-oblivious approach or a cost-aware approach. However, both approaches may suffer frequent SLA violations under flash crowd conditions. Because they ignore the benefit gained that a multi-tier application continuously guarantees the SLA in the new configuration. In this paper, we propose a benefit-aware approach with feedback control theory to solve this problem. Experimental results based on live workload traces show that our approach can reduce resource provisioning cost by as much as 30% compared with a costoblivious approach, and can effectively reduce SLA viola- tions compared with a cost-aware approach.展开更多
