DeadPool: Performance Deadline Based Frequency Pooling and Thermal Management Agent in DVFS Enabled MPSoCs

Abstract

High operating temperature and frequent thermal cycles in a multi-processor system-on-chip, which is now popularly utilized in mobile/Edge devices, harm the overall lifespan and reliability of such devices. In this paper, we propose an intelligent software agent that works alongside other resource mapping and partitioning mechanism in order to monitor and reduce the operating temperature of the system by regulating the operating frequency of the CPU cores while catering for performance constraint at the same time. Our proposed approach?, DeadPool thermal management agent, is able to reduce the overall operating temperature of the system by 24.21% and reduce thermal cycle by 67.42% at the most when compared to the state-of-the-art methods
