Embodiment Construction

[0068] Various examples of the present technology provide systems and methods for dynamically optimizing the operating frequency of a server system to minimize boot time on the system. An exemplary system may include a frequency adjustment module, at least one internal sensor, at least one external sensor, one or more cooling elements, a processor, memory, and a basic input / output system (BIOS). The frequency adjustment module can collect sensor data from at least one internal sensor and / or at least one external sensor. The frequency adjustment module can determine the appropriate operating frequency level of the server system according to the sensor data and the thermal frequency level table, so as to minimize the startup time of the server system.

[0069] Figure 1A is an exemplary block diagram illustrating an exemplary system 100A for dynamically optimizing operating frequency to minimize boot time according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this example, sys...

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a system and method for dynamically optimizing an operation frequency of a server system to minimize booting time on the system. An exemplary system may comprise a frequency adjustment module, at least one internal sensor, at least one external sensor, one or more cooling components, a processor, a memory and a basic input / output system (BIOS). The frequency adjustment module can collect sensor data from the at least one internal sensor and / or the at least one external sensor. Based upon the sensor data and a thermal-frequency level table, the frequency adjustment module can determine a suitable operation frequency level for the server system to minimize booting time on the server system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to system booting in a computer system. Background technique [0002] A modern server farm or data center usually employs a large number of server systems to handle the processing and storage requirements of various application services. Every server requires a basic input / output system (BIOS) for proper operation. The BIOS is the firmware that ensures the operation of the computer components of the server system. The BIOS stores firmware executed when the server system is turned on, and a set of configurations specified by the BIOS. The BIOS typically identifies, initializes, and tests software in the server system. [0003] A server system in a data center often needs to be restarted to ensure that the server system is working properly. However, starting the server system may require minimal time. Due to the large number of server systems in a data center, aggregating the individual uptime of each server system can cause co...
