1 Raspberry Pi HPC Testbed By Bradford W. Bazemore Georgia Southern University
2 The Goal All in one cluster Energy efficient Cost effective Foundation for future work Multipurpose System
3 HPC Computing Centers Mainframes Supercomputers PC Computing Centers to Computer Labs HPC is still needed
4 Clusters Used in many fields Engineering Physics Economics Complicated to design and build
5 MPI and Linux MPI the main tool for cluster programming Linux is the main OS of clusters Both inefficient Linux Kernel 15.9 million lines of code
6 Raspberry Pi Very small computer Cheap $$$ Energy Efficient Reusable 3D printed modular system
7 The Cluster Custom built 3D printed parts Modular Expandable Cost effective Energy efficient W
8 System Design Node i Node i+n Network Switch Power Supply Internet Main Power
9 Metrics Amdahl's Law
10 Conclusion VERY complex, VERY simple solution This is just the start Numerous applications
