Abstract
The increasing power consumption of High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters is a concern because of the high cost of electrical power, sustainability considerations and actual limitations in data center power infrastructures. The Energy Aware Runtime (EAR) is an Open Source software developed in a collaboration with Lenovo®, Barcelona Supercomputing Center and Energy Aware Solutions (EAS). EAR provides system and application power monitoring as well as Energy Optimization and Power Capping capabilities and helps HPC data centers to address those challenges.
This paper is intended for HPC system administrators, application developers and data center managers that want to better understand the power usage of their HPC system, optimize the energy consumption of the applications and limit the power consumption of the HPC cluster in operation.
