1. “Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling for Multicore Processors” Masters Thesis Proposal by Myname 1 This slides presents title of the proposed project State also the purpose and your name Optionally thank your audience

2. Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling2 Presentation Overview 1.Thesis Motivation 2.Thesis Aim and Innovation 3.Thesis Contributions and Objectives 4.The Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling Unit 5.Evaluation Methodology 6.Work Planning This slides presents an outline of the presentation

3. Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling3 Motivation: The Temperature Wall Problem Processor Performance –Measure of the execution time of application programs –Dominated by Processor Architecture Clock Frequency –Processor Power Consumption Depends on Clock Frequency Processor Voltage Processor Activity –Type of instructions executed This slides presents your thesis motivation. Start with the problem and state why it is essential to address it

4. Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling4 Motivation: The Temperature Wall Problem (Cont.) The Temperature Wall Problem –Increase performance by increasing Clock Frequency –Increase in Clock Frequency increases Power Consumption –Power Consumption converted to Heat and Temperature Increase –Reduce Clock Frequency to Cool Processor, thus Reduce Performance  Need another way to keep processor’s temperature low This slides presents your thesis motivation. Start with the problem and state why it is essential to address it

5. Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling5 Motivation: Task Scheduling on Multicore Processors Multicore Processors –Achieve higher performance using More than one simpler processors (Cores) Operating in Parallel Task Assignment to Cores affects –Hardware Complexity –Processor Performance Existing Task Assignment Methodologies: –Round Robin –Cache Affinity  Consider Core Temperature in deciding on Task Assignment This slides presents your thesis motivation. Start with the problem and state why it is essential to address it

6. Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling6 Thesis Aim Design, Implement and Evaluate a Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling System for Multi-core Processors Tasks assigned to the idle core with lowest temperature –Thus, avoid overheating the processor –……….. ………………. This slides presents your proposed solution to the problem. Justify also why

7. Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling7 Thesis Innovation The proposed task scheduling system is innovative, –Schedule task according to the temperature of each core, –Avoid reducing the clock frequency, Thus avoid performance degrading. ……. This slides presents your thesis innovation. Thesis innovation must be clearly stated. It affects the final assessment of your proposal

8. Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling8 Thesis Contributions (a)Design the Temperature-Aware Task Scheduling Unit.
