To enter or update your instance in the HPC Eco Race, please fill out the form below. Someone will contact you shortly to verify the numbers.
Please select the type of report you are making: Cluster Data Center Confidential
Your First Name: Your Last Name: A Password for you to use to update your entry (Store this someplace!): Your email address so we may contact you: For the kWh and core/gpu hours numbers you will report below, what is the time period covered? 3 Months 6 Months 9 Months 12 Months What is your Cluster or Data Center's Name? How many core hours were utilized during this period? How many GPU hours were utilized during this period? How many nodes (compute, gpu, storage, and management) do you have? How many kWh were used during this time period: What percent of the kWh is renewable (Solar, Hydro, Wind, Nuclear, etc.)? Note: Please do not include credits. % And what percent of the kWh is HVAC related? % Please describe your HPC system(s):
Please note: We respect your privacy. Below you will see the math we use to collect the hours/kWh number. That is the only number we need! Additionally, we can keep the number confidential. Just mark it as so if that is desired. It will not appear on the public HPCEcoRace list, but will immensely help us to calculate a sector wide assessment of CO2 emissions for HPC Clusters. Thank you for submitting!
For the below math: $ \alpha_c $ = Core Hours $ \alpha_g $ = GPU Hours $ \kappa $ = kWh $ \theta_h $ = Percent of the kWh that is HVAC related $ \rho_r $ = Percent of the kWh that is generated through renewable sources (Hydro, Solar, Wind, Nuclear, Geothermal, etc.) $ \tau $ = The time period for your kWh and CPU/GPU hours measurements (please use the same)
Here is the formula: $$ EcoRaceScore = \Large \frac{(\frac{\alpha_c+\alpha_g}{(\kappa*(100-\theta_h))*(100-\rho_r)})}{\tau} $$
