Projects

Lo Cal Cluster

1. Physical design - Biggest power proportional cluster for 1kW

  • Hardware (Atoms & efficient motherboards)
  • Energy storage hierarchy (Batteries, etc. at each level)

2. Power aware job schedule for cluster

3. Proxy

  • Present a view of a persistent connection but allow systems to sleep
  • Software proxy on each node vs. hardware proxy
  • How to determine if both sides are still alive
    • Use knowledge of power management regime
