Title
Modeling energy consumption for master–slave applications
Abstract
With energy costs now accounting for nearly 30 % of a datacenter’s operating expenses, energy consumption has become an important issue when designing and executing a parallel algorithm. This paper analyzes the energy consumption of MPI applications following the master–slave paradigm. The analytical model is derived for this paradigm and is validated over a master–slave matrix-multiplication. This analytical model is parameterized through architectural and algorithmic parameters, and it is capable of predicting the energy consumption for a given instance of the problem over a given architecture. We use an external, metered, power distribution unit that allows to easily measure the power consumption of computing nodes without the needing of dedicated hardware.
