Navigant Japan

Japan can be considered the most industrialized nation in Asia Pacific, with geographic, technology, and market dynamics all pointing toward greater reliance on renewable distributed energy resources (DER). Though the market for virtual power plants (VPPs) is nascent in Asia Pacific (see Chart 1-1), it has the potential to grow into a major hotbed of VPP innovation spanning both commercial and industrial (C&I) and residential customers. While Asia Pacific ranks third among major regions for VPPs according to Navigant Research,1 it is expected to move into second place within the decade. A series of market reforms have set the stage for VPPs and other DER management platforms such as microgrids and DER management system.

Intel Page Modification Logging, a hardware virtualization feature: study and improvement for virtual machine working set estimation

whitePaper | January 7, 2020

Intel Page Modification Logging (PML) is a novel hardware feature for tracking virtual machine (VM) accessed memory pages. This task is essential in today’s data centers since it allows, among others, checkpointing, live migration and working set size (WSS) estimation. Relying on the Xen hypervisor, this paper studies PML from three angles: power consumption, efficiency, and performance impact on user applications. Our findings are as follows. First, PML does not incur any power consumption overhead. Second, PML reduces by up to 10.18% both VM live migration and checkpointing time. Third, PML slightly reduces by up to 0.95% the performance degradation on applications incurred by live migration and checkpointing.
