Abstract

In this paper we present a novel approach for energy efficient hash table design. Hash table is a common approach to build associative arrays, database indexes and various kinds of program-defined caches. These data structures play a crucial role in modern feature-rich mobile applications. It in turn leads to significant power consumption associated with their use. However, modern hashing techniques are suffered from large probability of collision in the case of hash size acceptable for mobile devices. This makes it necessary to perform additional energy-inefficient memory access operations to resolve these collisions. We propose hashing technique with lower probability of collision for the hash of the same size. We show that unlike existing collision free approaches our hashing method has a much broader area of applicability. To support these claims both theoretical and experimental studies are presented. Experimental comparison with existing approaches has shown significant improvement of energy-efficiency for common applications.
