Green Hpc: Optimizing Software Stack Energy Efficiency Of Large Data Systems, Grant Wilkins

Honors College Theses

High-performance computing (HPC) is indispensable in modern scientific research and industry applications, but its energy consumption is a growing concern. This thesis presents two novel approaches to optimize energy consumption in large data systems. The first chapter of the thesis will discuss the use of Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) to optimize the energy efficiency of two popular lossy compression algorithms: SZ and ZFP. By adjusting the voltage and frequency levels of computing resources, DVFS can reduce energy consumption while maintaining the desired level of performance and accuracy. The second chapter of the thesis will focus on a detailed …
