Characterization and Visiulization of Power use Variability in High Performance Platforms

Variation in power use comes from various sources that include periodic processes over multiple time scales as well as random fluctuations. As a part of the Variability expeditions we have been experimenting with methods to detect such variations in real-time as well as characterize these for identification of major sources of variability. In this talk, I will review results from these ongoing experiments.

About the speaker:
Rajesh Gupta is a professor and holder of the QUALCOMM endowed chair in Embedded Microsystems in the Department of Computer Science & Engineering at UC San Diego, California. He received his B. Tech. in Electrical Engineering from IIT Kanpur, India in 1984, MS in EECS from UC Berkeley in 1986 and a Ph. D. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University in 1994.

Earlier he worked as a circuit designer at Intel Corporation, Santa Clara, California as a member of three successful processor design teams; and on the Computer Science faculty at University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign and UC Irvine.

His current research is focused on energy efficient and mobile computing issues in embedded systems. He is author/co-author of over 150 articles on various aspects of embedded systems and design automation and four patents on PLL design, data-path synthesis and system-on-chip modeling.

Gupta serves as an advisor to Tallwood Venture Capital, RealIntent, Calypto and Packet Digital Corporation.
