Power Management of High-Performance Computing System Based on Resource Limiting
Haitao Chen · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2010
This paper analyzes workload characteristics and power usage characteristics of parallel high-performance computing system,proposes a power management algorithm to reduce the power consumption of these systems by restricting the resource allocation and controlling the power state(sleep or active) of nodes.Detailed experiment using data from Parallel Workloads Archive tests the power management algorithm.Experimental result shows that the algorithm can achieve considerable overall system energy savings with small or no performance impact.
