Supercomputers are often favored because of their high performance and operational rates. As a result, more research continues to be made in this space.To tame issues like power consumption in supercomputing, Purdue University and Indiana University have teamed up in a competition meant to tackle current pain points, according to Karl Oversteyns (pictured, left), HPC systems engineer student at Purdue University.“So we’re a joint team between Purdue and IU,” he said. “It’s a multi-part competition where we’re going head to head against other teams from all across the world, benchmarking our supercomputing cluster that we designed. The main constraint is time and the power consumption
