HYBRID SYSTEM-ON-CHIP FOR POWER AND PERFORMANCE PREDICTION AND CONTROL

Abstract:

Systems and methods for a hybrid system-on-chip usable for predicting performance and power requirements of a host server include a big cores module, including central processing units, for receiving and pre-processing performance and power metrics data of the host server and to allocate computing resources, a small cores module, including massively parallel processing units, for mapping each instance associated with host server in the performance and power metrics data to a corresponding massively parallel processing unit based on the allocated computing resources for a per-instance metrics calculation, and an artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator for calculating performance and power prediction results based on the per-instant calculations from the small cores module.
