Did you know that the optimal use of applications or code development can have an impact on the environment? The energy usage of computing infrastructure is becoming an increasingly prominent topic for computing systems design and usage. In this course, you will learn about the basics behind energy-efficient computing. SURF, a cooperative association of Dutch educational and research institutions, will host this two-day hybrid training event on 15 and 16 June 2023.
This course will cover tools and technologies that allow a user/software developer to understand their energy usage in terms of energy analysis of the software being deployed on the system. The SURF team will give you a complete overview of optimizing the use of computing systems and application development for energy efficiency rather than focusing on performance or memory usage. You will learn how to do green coding and work with applications in a sustainable way. Some of the main topics will include:
- Overview of the data center energy footprint.
- Energy usage and energy-aware computing on HPC systems.
- Large-scale application performance and energy analysis.
- Application characterization and optimization for energy efficiency.
