Abstract :
The Single-chip Cloud Computer (SCC) is a 48-core experimental processor created by Intel Labs targeting the manycore research community. It has extensive frequency and voltage scaling support as well as on board power monitors. In this paper we present a detailed study of the power properties of the SCC. Then, we show how the SCC can be used as a substrate to emulate asymmetric multi processor systems on chip (MPSoCs) to be used for studying power/performance trade-offs.
