Computing system with energy awareness

A device comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a storage device storing program instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processor to:
• determine resources available to execute a job;
• determine a location of each resource and a connected topology of the resources;
• for each of a combination of the available resources, determine bandwidth information related to channels to move data to the resources to execute the job, the bandwidth information considering the location of data to be used to execute the job and the type of channels between the resources;
• and
• assign the job to a resource or a combination of resources using a scheduling algorithm that takes into account the bandwidth information and power considerations.

A system comprising:

• a workflow manager;
• a scheduler coupled to the workflow manager;
• and
• a plurality of nodes coupled to the scheduler;
• wherein the workflow manager is configured to provide bytecodes to the scheduler, each bytecodes providing instructions for executing an associated workload;
• wherein the scheduler is configured to schedule the workloads based on power considerations including bandwidth information related to channels to move data to resources of the nodes to execute the workloads, the bandwidth information considering locations of data to be used to execute the workloads and channels between the resources of the nodes;
• and
• wherein each nodes is configured to receive a workload assignment including associated bytecodes from the scheduler, to compile the workload from the bytecodes, and execute the workload.
