Standardizing Power Monitoring and Control at Exascale

Computer

Grant, Ryan E.; Levenhagen, Michael J.; Olivier, Stephen L.; DeBonis, David D.; Pedretti, Kevin P.; Laros, James H.

Power API - the result of collaboration among national laboratories, universities, and major vendors - provides a range of standardized power management functions, from application-level control and measurement to facility-level accounting, including real-time and historical statistics gathering. Support is already available for Intel and AMD CPUs and standalone measurement devices.

High Performance Computing - Power Application Programming Interface Specification Version 1.4

Laros, James H.; DeBonis, David D.; Grant, Ryan E.; Kelly, Suzanne M.; Levenhagen, Michael J.; Olivier, Stephen L.; Pedretti, Kevin P.

Measuring and controlling the power and energy consumption of high performance computing systems by various components in the software stack is an active research area [13, 3, 5, 10, 4, 21, 19, 16, 7, 17, 20, 18, 11, 1, 6, 14, 12]. Implementations in lower level software layers are beginning to emerge in some production systems, which is very welcome. To be most effective, a portable interface to measurement and control features would significantly facilitate participation by all levels of the software stack. We present a proposal for a standard power Application Programming Interface (API) that endeavors to cover the entire software space, from generic hardware interfaces to the input from the computer facility manager.
