Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is a flow chart of steps of the present invention.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing embodiments of the invention are elaborated, present embodiment is to implement under the prerequisite invent technical scheme with this paper, provided detailed embodiment and concrete operating process, but protection scope of the present invention is not limited to following embodiment.
Embodiment 1
As shown in Figure 1, a kind of microprocessor heat sensor configuration method, this method may further comprise the steps:
The first step; Take Alpha EV6 microprocessor architecture design; The a plurality of operating modes of operation on microprocessor; Use SimpleScalar software emulation SPEC2000 (System Performance Evaluation Corporation) STP to simulate different operating modes, and pass through the power consumption of power consumption calculation unit computing module, the Temperature Distribution computing unit calculates the Temperature Distribution of microprocessor under this power consumption;
Above-mentioned power consumption calculation unit is a Wattch infrastructure software, and the Temperature Distribution computing unit is a Hotspot software.
In second step, the temperature profile that emulation under the different test procedures is obtained carries out focus merging and rejecting through MATLAB, obtains each module focus distribution stacking diagram of microprocessor, amounts to 20 focuses;
Said focus merges and rejecting is meant: be placed on the same Organization Chart getting hot spot data in all focus distribution plans, if there is hotspot location to overlap fully, so only keep one, other coincide points are rejected.
The 3rd step was set at 5% with maximum focus monitoring error, utilized the dual clustering algorithm of improvement of considering singular point to carry out the self-organization bunch Fusion of Clustering operation of all focuses, and its algorithm frame is following:
1) class center of initialization; This center be in all data points to be clustered with a maximum point of average difference, be the adjacent with it data point of reference scan with this center, whether the attributive distance that calculates these data points and center above threshold value; If attributive distance is less than threshold value; Then merge into one bunch, if attributive distance is greater than threshold value, then nonjoinder;
When 2) take place merging, immediately the data point set that newly is merged into as new class, any merging till not taking place in all adjacent data points around the scanning once more;
3) if one bunch can't merge with periphery again, then this bunch is exactly the complete cluster that we ask;
4) in remaining data point, circulate again 1,2,3 steps of execution, till all data points all belong to certain cluster.
The benefit of considering singular point is; In the process of cluster; Temperature value is compared often very difficult gathering with most of focus of the bigger focus of difference with average temperature value be one type, and coverlet Du Gu is upright, and causing need be its situation of distributing a sensor separately; Preferentially with it as cluster centre can be as much as possible periphery can type of permeating point distribute into this cluster, with the minimizing number of sensors.
Above-mentioned adjacent data point is meant: according to focus distribution superposition of data; Make the VORONOI figure of these focus dot matrix, if the VORONOI polygon accord with Q ueen criterion at certain two data points place, promptly there is public vertex in two polygons; So, this two data points then is judged as the consecutive number strong point.
Described attributive distance is meant: between two data points, and the Euclidean distance of non-space attribute.Suppose N d dimension strong point P n={ g n 1... g n d, a n 1... a n m, 1≤n≤N; G wherein n 1... g n dBe the locus coordinate of this point, a n 1... a n mNon-space property value for this point.Any 2 P are then arranged 1, P 2Attributive distance be:
D = Σ m ( a 1 i - a 2 i ) 2
In the present embodiment, because the non-space property value has only temperature, so attributive distance is the point-to-point transmission temperature difference.
Said threshold value is meant: judging that whether two data points can gather is one type variable for one, is that the focus monitoring error is no more than and sets peaked key when guaranteeing to distribute sensor according to cluster result, so its threshold value itself is relevant with maximum heat point tolerance setting value.Suppose ε MaxBe the maximum error ratio that engineering allows, n is the number of data points that cluster inside has contained, a iIt is the non-space property value of all data points in the cluster.Then have:
The α here is an improvement factor, is used for balance sensor quantity and error, should choose flexibly according to different maximum error setting values, and present embodiment maximum error setting value is 5%, and the α value chooses 2.0.
In the 4th step, the number of clusters that finally obtains through above-mentioned steps is 4, and each cluster is distributed one piece of thermal sensor, promptly monitors all focuses according to 5% maximum error, and required thermal sensor quantity is 4.The position of sensor just is placed on the barycenter place of contained all focuses of this cluster, i.e. the average center of account temperature value weighting.
Embodiment 2
With reference to shown in Figure 1; The concrete steps of method are with embodiment 1; Difference is that setting maximum monitoring error respectively is 2%, 3% and 4%, and the number of sensors that adopts the inventive method and the resulting hot monitoring scheme of existing k-means clustering technique to adopt compares; The result is as shown in table 1, and the clear the inventive method of this illness that has not attacked the vital organs of the human body requires lower sensor quantity significantly to reduce at equal accuracy.When particularly accuracy requirement is higher, adopt the inventive method improved efficiency very obvious.(2% accuracy requirement is because near the limit of error, so promote not too obvious.)
