Automatic Energy Efficient HPC Programming: A Case Study Helene Coullon, Laurent Lefevre, Christian Perez, Issam Rais Energy consumption is one of the major challenges of modern datacenters and supercomputers. By applying Green Programming techniques, developers have to iteratively implement and test new versions of their software, thus evaluating the impact of each code version on their energy, power and performance objectives. This approach is manual and can be long, challenging and complicated, especially for High Performance Computing applications.
18 months postdoc position - VeRDi project We are opening a post-doc position in the VeRDi project. The VeRDi project is funded by the French region Pays De La Loire where Nantes is located. VeRDi is an acronym for Verified Reconfiguration Driven by execution. It aims at addressing distributed software reconfiguration in an efficient and verified way The postdoc position is part of the multi-disciplinary VeRDi project. VeRDi can be divided in two different parts (though strongly related): (1) the design of efficient distributed reconfiguration models and systems; (2) the formalization of these models and the formal verification of some properties on them.
Seminar and Collaboration at Northern Arizona University Helene Coullon has been invited to the Nothern Arizona University from September 10th to 16th for a collaboration in link with the VeRDi project. She has given a seminar the 13th of September entitled “Performance, Software engineering and verification: a wining combination for HPC and Utility computing?”.
