The Energy Efficient High Performance Computing Working Group (EE HPC WG) encourages energy efficiency and sustainability in HPC.
It is an open global forum for collective action and peer-to-peer exchange.
There are ~1300 volunteer members in more than 40 countries.
What makes the EE HPC WG unique is the way it brings together people across organizational silos and geographies.
The approach is to create teams that focus on specific, concrete and actionable deliverables.
The teams are task forces, not meant to be long-lived.
The deliverables are generally documents, for example, whitepapers or published papers.
EE HPC WG whitepapers have been adopted by other organizations such as the Top500/Green500, The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the Open Compute Project.
Other EE HPC WG documents are operational guidelines, case-studies, lessons learned and best practices.
Surveys are conducted and the results published to facilitate research and technology development.
This talk will describe some of the current team work in sustainability and procurement, liquid cooling, operational data analytics and power measurement.
