IT carbon footprint: Dynatrace Carbon Impact and Optimization app helps organizations measure cloud computing carbon footprint

Dynatrace

As global warming advances, growing IT carbon footprints are pushing energy-efficient computing to the top of many organizations’ priority lists. Energy efficiency is a key reason why organizations are migrating workloads from energy-intensive on-premises environments to more efficient cloud platforms.

Detecting Speech and Music in Audio Content

The Netflix TechBlog

Content, genre and languages Instead of augmenting or synthesizing training data, we sample the large scale data available in the Netflix catalog with noisy labels. To evaluate and benchmark our dataset, we manually labeled 20 audio tracks from various TV shows which do not overlap with our training data.

How to maximize CPU performance for PostgreSQL 12.0 benchmarks on Linux

HammerDB

HammerDB doesn’t publish competitive database benchmarks, instead we always encourage people to be better informed by running their own. So over at Phoronix some database benchmarks were published showing PostgreSQL 12 Performance With AMD EPYC 7742 vs. Intel Xeon Platinum 8280 Benchmarks .

Engineering stop-energy in standards and quasi-standards bodies is nice and all, but it is so much more work than simply denying anyone the ability to ship the features that you won't. native, OS-specific) platform and the hopefully weaker web platform. This adds powerfully to the usual moat-digger's weaponisation of consensus processes.

The Surprising Effectiveness of Non-Overlapping, Sensitivity-Based Performance Models

John McCalpin

To show that I can criticize my own work as well, here I show that sustained memory bandwidth (using an approximation to the STREAM Benchmark ) is also inadequate as a single figure of metric. (It Over time, the mechanisms introduced for reducing energy consumption (first in laptops) became available more broadly.

Top500 list: a brief introduction

PDC

It ranks the world’s 500 most powerful supercomputers based on their performance as measured by the Linpack benchmark. A supercomputer that is capable of 1 exaFLOPS or higher would be called an exascale supercomputer, and, when they become available, they are expected to contribute significantly to the advancement of science and technology.

What Adrian Did Next?—?Part 2?—?Sun Microsystems

Another big jump, but now it was my job to run benchmarks in the lab, and write white papers that explained the new products to the world, as they were launched. I was mostly coding in C, tuning FORTRAN, and when I needed to do a lot of data analysis of benchmark results used the S-PLUS statistics language, that is the predecessor to R.
