Research on Computer Architecture based on Distributed Cluster Structure

摘要

With the fast development of image science and embedded system technique, it is widely accepted that future HPC systems will be limited by their power consumption. The current high performance computing system is a commodity server processors, design for many years to achieve maximum performance, and then it dawned on energy efficiency. In this paper we advocate a different approach: computer architecture based on distributed cluster structure. We introduce the architecture of Tibidabo, the first large-scale HPC cluster built from ARM multicore chips, and a detailed performance and energy efficiency evaluation. We now design experience and to improve the energy efficiency of future HPC systems based on the low power core. The experimental result shows the effectiveness of our methodology, further in-depth research portion is also discussed with case studies.
