Adaptive Hard Disk Power Management on Personal Computers

چکیده
Dynamic power management can be effective for designing low-power systems. In many systems, requests are clustered into sessions. This paper proposes an adaptive algorithm that can predict session lengths and shut down components between sessions to save power. Compared to other approaches, simulations show that this algorithm can reduce power consumption in hard disks with less impact on performance or reliability.

Hoarding for a Hierarchical Storage Architecture
Despite recent increases in the processing power of handheld computers, often called palmtops, the devices continue to function primarily as personal information organizers. We believe adding mass storage to handheld computers will expand the usefulness of the devices. We propose a storage hierarchy, involving a hard disk and large software controlled flash memory cache, that lowers the power c...

Volunteer computing platforms have become a popular means of providing vast amounts of processing power to scientific applications through the use of personal home computers. To date, with little exception, these systems have focused solely on exploiting idle CPU cycles and have yet to take full advantage of other available resources such as powerful video card processors, hard disk storage cap...
متن کاملFlash on Disk for Low-Power Multimedia Computing
Mobile multimedia computers require large amounts of data storage, yet must consume low power in order to prolong battery life. Solid-state storage offers low power consumption, but its capacity is an order of magnitude smaller than the hard disks needed for high-resolution photos and digital video. In order to create a device with the space of a hard drive, yet the low power consumption of sol...
متن کاملAn economical backup warning strategy for a hard disk
A hard disk has, in recent years, become an essential component for a personal computer as well as a work station. A hard disk stores a variety of files, which are daily updated. The files in a hard disk are, however, lost because ofhuman errors and afailure of the hard disk. This is called a hard disk failure. In order to protect usfrom such a serions loss, it is important to make a backup cop...
