SleepScale: Runtime joint speed scaling and sleep states management for power efficient data centers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Power consumption in data centers has been growing significantly in recent years. To reduce power, servers are being equipped with increasingly sophisticated power management mechanisms. Different mechanisms offer dramatically different trade-offs between power savings and performance penalties. Considering the complexity, variety, and temporally-varying nature of the applications hosted in a typical data center, intelligently determining which power management policy to use and when is a complicated task. In this paper we analyze a system model featuring both performance scaling and low-power states. We reveal the interplay between performance scaling and low-power states via intensive simulation and analytic verification. Based on the observations, we present SleepScale, a runtime power management tool designed to efficiently exploit existing power control mechanisms. At run time, SleepScale characterizes power consumption and quality-of-service (QoS) for each low-power state and frequency setting, and selects the best policy for a given QoS constraint. We evaluate SleepScale using workload traces from data centers and achieve significant power savings relative to conventional power management strategies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
