Abstract

The effort expended to measure current draw and voltage are enabling technologies critical to conducting the experiments contained in this book. To date, there has been no other work published that has been based on such large-scale fine-grained in situ measurements of energy on a High Performance Computing (HPC) platform. This chapter contains a discussion of both the hardware and software infrastructure used to conduct our experiments.
