The goal of the interdisciplinary seminar series Computation & Data at HSU is to bring together researchers and foster exchange on the development of algorithms, methods and software. The seminar series is typically scheduled for the last Wednesday every month, 16:00-17:00, with 1 presentation per hybrid session (digital and at HSU). Immediately after the seminar series, the HPC Café take place.
Feel free to subscribe the seminar newsletter by sending an e-mail to info-hpc-bw@hsu-hh.de with the subject line „Subscription Seminar Computation & Data”.
Demand for HPC is growing across scientific fields, leading to growing energy demand. To minimize ecological impact of their work, and since it is not unlikely that future systems will implement billing based on energy consumption, users should be aware of and aiming to improve the energy efficiency. In this talk, we give a general introduction to GreenHPC and GreenIT more broadly and present steps users can take on HSUper and other clusters to improve energy efficiency. Furthermore, we include some concrete examples from previous and outlook towards future work on making HPC more sustainable.
