Event-Driven Thermal Management in SMP Systems
White Paper Multiprocessor systems, however, offer the possibility of moving the task which caused a CPU to overheat away to some other, cooler CPU, so throttling becomes only a last resort taken if all of a... [18 Apr 2007]
Sun gets hip with the Starcat
News The new product comes in four CPU configurations, ranging from 16 to 72 processors. All versions use Sun's latest 900MHz UltraSparc iii CPU with copper technology. However, the server... [25 Sep 2001]
Running IBM System z at High CPU Utilization
White Paper Several questions have been asked about this unique trait and strength of System z including "Can any single workload be run at 100% CPU busy? and "Is there a growth in CPU time per transaction at higher... [09 Apr 2008]
TCP Performance Re-Visited
White Paper The impact of CPU scaling and memory bus loading on TCP performance is also described. As CPU speeds outstrip I/O and memory speeds, many generally accepted notions of TCP performance begin to unravel. [07 Nov 2007]
Distributed Utilization Control for Real-Time Clusters With Load Balancing
White Paper Such clusters must adaptively control the CPU utilizations of many processors in order to maintain desired soft real-time performance and prevent system overload in face of unpredictable workloads.... [10 Jul 2008]
