Method And System For Conserving Power By Degrading Network Connection Speed

US Patent:
7984193, Jul 19, 2011
Filed:
Sep 27, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/863179
Inventors:
William H. Moore - Fremont CA, US
Darrin P. Johnson - San Jose CA, US
Randall S. Fishel - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
Oracle America, Inc. - Redwood City CA
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709250
Abstract:
In general, in one aspect, the invention relates to a method for conserving power. The method includes determining a first network connection speed for a network interface card (NIC), configuring the NIC to operate at the first network connection speed, processing, after the configuration, packets received by the NIC, obtaining a bandwidth utilization of the NIC, determining, using a power management policy, a second network connection speed for the NIC based on the bandwidth utilization when the bandwidth utilization is outside a threshold range, and configuring the NIC to operate at the second network connection speed.

Dynamic Power Management For I/O Resource Pools

US Patent:
2007011, May 24, 2007
Filed:
Nov 22, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/286085
Inventors:
Darrin Johnson - Mountain View CA, US
Sunay Tripathi - San Jose CA, US
Randall Fishel - Sunnyvale CA, US
International Classification:
H04J 3/22
US Classification:
370468000, 370252000
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for managing a pool of I/O interfaces associated with one or more I/O devices are disclosed. The I/O bandwidth utilization of the I/O devices is ascertained and compared with an upper threshold and a lower threshold. When the I/O bandwidth utilization is greater than the upper threshold, the resources provided by the pool of I/O interfaces are increased. When the I/O bandwidth utilization is less than the lower threshold, the resources provided by the pool of I/O interfaces are decreased.
