In order to analyze the relay action process from an imaging perspective and further investigate the bounce phenomenon of relay contacts during the contact process, this paper utilizes a high-speed shooting platform to capture images of relay action. In light of the situation where the stationary contact in the image is inclined and continuously changing, a rotation template matching algorithm based on adaptive weight is proposed. The algorithm identifies and obtains the inclination angle of the stationary contact, enabling the study of the relay contact bounce process. By extracting contact bounce distance data from the images, a bounce process curve is plotted. Combined with the analysis of the contact bounce process, the reasons for the bounce are explored. The results indicate that the proposed rotation template matching algorithm can accurately identify stationary contacts and their angles at different angles. By analyzing the contact status and bounce process of the relay contacts in conjunction with the relay structure, parameters such as the bounce time, bounce height, and time required to reach the maximum distance can be calculated. Additionally, the main reason for contact bounce in the relay studied in this paper is the limitation imposed on the continued movement of the stationary contact by the presence of the relay brackets when the kinetic energy of the contact is too high. This phenomenon occurs during the first vibration peak in the vibration process after the moving contact contacts the stationary contact. The research results provide a reference for further studying the relay contact bounce process, optimizing relay structure, and suppressing contact bounce.

With the advantage of faster data access than traditional disks, in-memory database systems, such as Redis and Memcached, have been widely applied in data centers and embedded systems. The performance of in-memory database greatly depends on the access speed of memory. With the requirement of high bandwidth and low energy, die-stacked memory (e.g., High Bandwidth Memory (HBM)) has been developed to extend the channel number and width. However, the capacity of die-stacked memory is limited due to the interposer challenge. Thus, hybrid memory system with traditional Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) and die-stacked memory emerges. Existing works have proposed to place and manage data on hybrid memory architecture in the view of hardware. This paper considers to manage in-memory database data in hybrid memory in the view of application. We first perform a preliminary study on the hotness distribution of client requests on Redis. From the results, we observe that most requests happen on a small portion of data objects in in-memory database. Then, we propose the Application-oriented Data Migration called ADM to accelerate in-memory database on hybrid memory. We design a hotness management method and two migration policies to migrate data into or out of HBM. We take Redis under comprehensive benchmarks as a case study for the proposed method. Through the experimental results, it is verified that our proposed method can effectively gain performance improvement and reduce energy consumption compared with existing Redis database.
