Scheduling for reduced CPU energy
- USENIX SYMP. OPERATING
, 1994
"... The energy usage of computer systems is becoming more important, especially for battery operated systems. Displays, disks, and cpus, in that order, use the most energy. Reducing the energy used by displays and disks has been studied elsewhere; this paper considers a new method for reducing the energ ..."

the energy used by the cpu. We introduce a new metric for cpu energy performance, millions-of-instructions-per-joule (MIPJ). We examine a class of methods to reduce MIPJ that are characterized by dynamic control of system clock speed by the operating system scheduler. Reducing clock speed alone does

Differential modulation of clock speed by the administration of intermittent versus continuous cocaine
- Behavioral Neuroscience
, 2004
"... The roles that psychostimulant sensitization and tolerance play in temporal perception in the seconds-to-minutes range were assessed in rats. Cocaine (20 mg/kg/day) was administered for 2 weeks either intermittently via daily injections (induces sensitization) or continuously via an osmotic minipump ..."

minipump (induces tolerance). Interval timing was evaluated throughout administration and withdrawal. Injections of cocaine caused immediate, proportional, leftward shifts in peak times, indicating an increase in the speed of an internal clock. These shifts grew progressively larger with repeated
Time is money: The effect of clock speed on seller’s revenue in Dutch auctions
, 2006
"... Abstract We study the role of timing in auctions under the premise that time is a valuable resource. When one object is for sale, Dutch and first-price sealed bid auctions are strategically equivalent in standard models, and therefore, they should yield the same revenue for the auctioneer. We study ..."

Dutch and first-price sealed bid auctions in the laboratory, with a specific emphasis on the speed of the clock in the Dutch auction. At fast clock speeds, revenue in the Dutch auction is significantly lower than it is in the sealed bid auction. When the clock is sufficiently slow, however, revenue
Complexity-effective superscalar processors
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 24TH ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE
, 1997
"... The performance tradeoff between hardware complexity and clock speed is studied. First, a generic superscalar pipeline is defined. Then the specific areas of register renaming, instruction window wakeup and selection logic, and operand bypassing are ana-lyzed. Each is modeled and Spice simulated for ..."

Internet time synchronization: The network time protocol

It uses a returnabletime architecture in which a distributed subnet of time servers operating in a self-organizing, hierarchi ..."

Consensus in the presence of partial synchrony
- JOURNAL OF THE ACM
, 1988
"... The concept of partial synchrony in a distributed system is introduced. Partial synchrony lies between the cases of a synchronous system and an asynchronous system. In a synchronous system, there is a known fixed upper bound A on the time required for a message to be sent from one processor to ano ..."

In one version of partial synchrony, fixed bounds A and (I, exist, but they are not known a priori. The problem is to design protocols that work
Memory performance at reduced cpu clock speeds: an analysis of current x86 64 processors

Introduction and related literature The role of timing in markets has been receiving an increasing amount of attention in the economics literature. Roth and Xing (1994) start their paper by pointing out that "The timing of transactions is a little-studied feature of markets, but one which pla ys a large role in their ability to function." The popularity of Internet auctions, such as eBay, has made timing issues in auctions particularly salient. Traditional auction houses, such as Christie's, require bidders or their representatives to assemble at a specific place and time, and therefore auctions must be conducted fairly quickly (often lasting less than an hour). In contrast, Internet auctions allow geographically dispersed bidders to participate, making it possible to conduct auctions that last many days. One disadvantage of long Internet auctions is that they may impose high monitoring costs on the bidders, affecting the strategy of the bidders and the revenues of the auctioneer.
MICROPROCESSOR THE ALPHA 21264 OWES ITS HIGH PERFORMANCE TO HIGH CLOCK SPEED, MANY FORMS OF OUT-OF-ORDER AND SPECULATIVE EXECUTION, AND A HIGH-
"... Alpha microprocessors have been performance leaders since their introduction in 1992. The first generation 21064 and the later 21164 1,2 raised expectations for the newest generation—performance leadership was again a goal of the 21264 design team. Benchmark scores of 30+ SPECint95 and 58+ SPECfp95 ..."
