Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Due to high energy costs, fine-grained power consumption accounting and capability of making users of High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters aware of the cost of their computation is becoming more and more important. Hardware power measurement solutions can be very expensive, hence the appeal of software-based estimation methods. In this paper we present a practical approach to power consumption estimation of both individual application executions and whole computing nodes. We compare it to existing state-of-the-art solutions, provide accuracy figures, and discuss possible deployment scenarios. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
