Synopsis

WelcometotheproceedingsofthePower-AwareComputerSystems(PACS2002) workshopheld in conjunction with the 8th InternationalSymposium on High PerformanceComputerArchitecture(HPCA-8). Improvementsincomputers- temperformancehavebeenaccompaniedbyanalarmingincreaseinpowerand energydissipation, leading tohigher costandlowerreliabilityinallcomputer systemsmarketsegments. Thehigherpower/energydissipationhasalsosign- icantlyreducedbatterylife inportablesystems. Whilecircuit-leveltechniques continuetoreducepowerandenergy, alllevelsofcomputersystemsarebeing usedtoaddresspowerandenergyissues.

Theseproceedingsincluderesearchpapersspanningawidespectrumof- eas in power-aware systems. We have grouped the papers into the following categories: (1)power-awarearchitectureandmicroarchitecture, (2)power-aware real-time systems, (3) power modeling and monitoring, and (4) power-aware operatingsystemsandcompilers.
